additions to unit(1)
Because of reasons I recently had to carry a lot of garbage around for the municipality to pick up. They would only pickup 2 cubic meters in one sitting so I had to check how much I had. Turned out to be 0.9 m^3. Of course inquisitive minds wanted to know how much that is in buttloads, to my great dismay units(1) did not know! So I had to do it by hand like some savage and of course I got the conversion wrong hence the following diff: You have: 0.9 m3 You want: buttloads * 0.53207987 / 1.8794171 About half a buttload, good to know. Extensive research on the subject[1] found definitions for the imperial buttload as well as the related metric assload. Curiously the assload is a measurement of mass while the buttload is a measurement of volume.
