Volume
Overview
Bulk containers:
- Bulk storage bin (BSB) - stores resources and crafted build components only
- Bulk container unit (BCU) - has four bulk storage bins built in
- Food storage bin (FSB) - stores raw food items only
Bulk containers have a volume of 16k (without an expand enchant). Use the tables below to calculate max items for your volume containers. The formula is simple.
$Capacity = 16000 \div Volume$
Here are some common big volume use cases:
| Item | Volume | Max items in a BSB |
|---|---|---|
| Brick | 8.00 | 2000 |
| Log | 80.00 | 200 |
| Shard/Ore/Dirt/Heap of sand | 18.75 | 853 |
| Slab | 100.00 | 160 |
| Wooden Beams | 58.32 | 274 |
Note that partial/incomplete items do add to the value of a bulk container's overall volume and may make it appear that the container is holding one more item than it can actually hold, because the partial/incomplete items are causing the the total to round up. You see this when storing brick where 853 becomes 854, but that 1 brick isn't a complete brick.

Notes
- Some of the decimals are approximated, based on thousandths and beyond that I calculated while dropping items in a bulk container. Since I can't see the actual decimal values, I gave the closest number based on division. Actual decimal values may be slightly higher due to the numbers I can't see.
- I made the tables based on the items I had in my own mass bulk storage. There may be a few items that I missed. I will be adding them as I find them.
