Petrograd Standard is an old Nordic measure for softwood timber. It measures 165 cubic feet (4.672 m3), whereas a "London Standard" measures 270 cubic feet (7.646 m3). The timber measurements also vary between Europe and the United States and also between the traditional measurement system from Northern Europe and the Metric system. In the U.S. the units of measurement are "Lua error in Module:Convert at line 1851: attempt to index local 'en_value' (a nil value)." and in the metric system the unit is the "Stere" which is 1 cubic metre. Small logs of "fir" trees, called "pit props", are traditionally measured by the "intaken piled fathom" ("IPF"), 6 ft x 6 ft x 6 ft or 216 cubic feet (6.116 m3).[1]

Note that the Kristiania Standard is 5⁄8 of Petrograd Standard (103.125 cubic feet or 2.9202 cubic metres), and the London Standard is 270 cu ft (7.646 m3). The name Petrograd Standard may derive from Petrograd.
