Question

how high would a stack of 2 by 6 boards be if the stack is 10 boards high? Explain

Answer 1

Hi Dani, in todays construction environment, a 2 by 6 inch board would actually be 1.5 inches by 5.5 inches. Therefore, a stack of 2 by 6 in boards 10 high would be 15 inches or 1 foot, 3 inches high.
