Someone else will answer your volume question?

But, hey! What's this about  'International'. The Internationals in this
group work in cubic meters, unless they are crusty old-fashioned Brits
who sometimes still work in a totally weird measurement called 'Hoppus
feet'.  <g>

BTW. One cubic metre is 417 board feet.
