The exact modern koku is calculated to be 180.39 litres, 100 times the capacity of a modern shō. [11] [d] This modern koku is essentially defined to be the same as the koku from the Edo period (1600–1868), [e] namely 100 times the shō equal to 64827 cubic bu in the traditional shakkanhō measuring system.
The ton is derived from the tun, the term applied to a cask of the largest capacity.This could contain a volume between 175 and 213 imperial gallons (210 and 256 US gal; 800 and 970 L), which could weigh around 2,000 pounds (910 kg) and occupy some 60 cubic feet (1.7 m 3) of space.
Hence 1 L ≡ 0.001 m 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3; and 1 m 3 (i.e. a cubic metre, which is the SI unit for volume) is exactly 1000 L. From 1901 to 1964, the litre was defined as the volume of one kilogram of pure water at maximum density (+3.98 °C) [ citation needed ] and standard pressure .
Sometimes hiro is used equal to 5 shaku [19] ( 50 / 33 m, ~1.5152 metres). The traditional units are still used for construction materials in Japan. For example, plywood is usually manufactured in 182 cm × 91 cm (about 72 in × 36 in ) sheets known in the trade as saburokuhan ( 3 × 6版 ) , or 3 × 6 shaku .
The tonne (/ t ʌ n / ⓘ or / t ɒ n /; symbol: t) is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms.It is a non-SI unit accepted for use with SI.It is also referred to as a metric ton in the United States to distinguish it from the non-metric units of the short ton (United States customary units) and the long ton (British imperial units).
