You don't. A linear foot is 1 foot. A square foot is 1 ftÂ². Linear measure is given when one wants eg to describe density, as 1 lb/ft = 1 PLF, where 1 lb/sq ft = 1 PSF, and 1 PCF = 1 lb/cu ft. Written Jun 6, 2015.
For instance, 6 linear feet of 1-by-12 has an area of 6 square feet (12 inches = 1 foot, times 6 feet), and it's 1 inch thick, so the volume is 1/2 cubic foot (6 square feet times 1/12 foot). But 6 linear feet of a 1-by-6 board would have half the area and half the volume.A BOARD FOOT is equivalent to one square foot of a 1-inch-thick board. In other words, it is a square-foot-inch (ft^2-in), or 1/12 cubic foot.Linear feet are used for the pricing of a single size such as two-by-fours.
