Stone, 16 cubic feet (0.453 m 3) Salt, 42 US bushels (1.480 m 3) Lime, 40 US bushels (1.410 m 3) Coke, 28 US bushels (0.99 m 3) Wheat, 20 US bushels (0.705 m 3) The nearest thing to a standard cubic ton seems to be the "timber" cubic ton (40 cubic feet or 1.133 cubic metres) which is used by freight transport operators in the US.

Since this is a measurement of mass, any conversion to barrels of oil equivalent depends on the density of the oil in question, as well as the energy content. Typically 1 tonne of oil has a volume of 1.08 to 1.19 cubic metres (6.8 to 7.5 bbl).
ton, assay (long) AT ≡ 1 mg × 1 long ton ÷ 1 oz t = 32. 6 g ton, assay (short) AT ≡ 1 mg × 1 short ton ÷ 1 oz t = 29.1 6 g ton, long: long tn or ton ≡ 2240 lb = 1 016.046 9088 kg: ton, short: sh tn ≡ 2000 lb = 907.184 74 kg: tonne (mts unit) t ≡ 1000 kg = 1000 kg: wey: ≡ 252 lb = 18 st = 114.305 277 24 kg (variants exist ...
Oil conversion factor from m³ to bbl (or stb) is 6.28981100 Gas conversion factor from standard m³ to scf is 35.314666721 Note that the m³ gas conversion factor takes into account a difference in the standard temperature base for measurement of gas volumes in metric and imperial units.
The numerator yields the ship's volume expressed in cubic feet. If a "tun" is deemed to be equivalent to 100 cubic feet, then the tonnage is simply the number of such 100 cubic feet 'tun' units of volume. 100 the divisor is unitless, so tonnage would be expressed in 'ft 3 of tun'. [1]
Bulk Phosphate Stowage Factor (SF) about 0.90 m 3 /ton (32 ft 3 /ton) In fact, Ship A has space for 55,000 mtons on her holds 70,000/0.90 = 77,000 mtons or 2,470,000/32 = 77,000 mtons (rounded) However, Ship A can only take 55,000 mtons in weight of Bulk Phosphate before Ship A loadline is submerged Stowage Factor (SF) Example 2: Ship B
Therefore the volume of hold space required for several tuns was greater than the total of the capacity of those tuns. 252 imperial gallons is just over 40 cubic feet (1.1 m 3). British practice by the 19th century was for a ton of cargo volume to be 50 cubic feet (1.4 m 3).
The factor–label method can convert only unit quantities for which the units are in a linear relationship intersecting at 0 (ratio scale in Stevens's typology). Most conversions fit this paradigm. An example for which it cannot be used is the conversion between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale (or the Fahrenheit scale). Between degrees ...
