A cubic meter (m3) is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to one thousand liters (1000 L).
It is the volume of a perfect cube with sides that are exactly one meter long. The plural form is cubic meters.
It can be challenging to visualize a cubic meter in your mind. Still, a few everyday examples help clarify the concept. One cubic meter is roughly the size of:
The cubic meter (m3) is the SI unit for volume — the global standard used in science, engineering, and international trade.
Because it's based on the meter (the SI unit of length), it fits neatly into a consistent measurement system.
This makes it practical for measuring large amounts — from the concrete for a building to the capacity of a shipping container.
The cubic meter has a direct and valuable relationship with mass.
For example, one cubic meter of pure water at its maximum density has a mass of almost exactly 1,000 kilograms (or one metric ton).
The unit is also used in specialized fields. When measuring stacked firewood, a cubic meter is often called a "stere."
While it's not an official SI unit, the stere is still commonly used in the forestry and timber industries.
A Glas is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to 0.2 Liters (l) or 200 milliliters (mL).
It's a simple and practical measurement, and its plural form is also "Glas."
As you might guess from the name, "Glas" is the German word for a drinking "glass."
This unit of volume originates from the typical size of a standard drinking glass in Germany and other German-speaking countries.
While not an official SI unit, it's a common, practical measurement you'll often see in German recipes for cakes or for serving everyday beverages like milk or juice.
Understanding how a Glas converts to other common units is essential for cooking and everyday use.
Since one Glas is exactly 200 mL, its conversions are very straightforward.
The Glas serves as a convenient bridge between other common metric volume units, highlighting its practical size for kitchen measurements.
