The President Tree (Sequoiadendron giganteum) [3] was measured in 2012 to have a trunk volume of 54,000 cubic feet (1,500 m 3) of wood and a branch volume of 9,000 cubic feet (250 m 3) of wood in the branches. In this giant tree the branch volume was only 16.7% that of the trunk volume.
Once the wood gets wet, floors can swell, buckle, and warp. To best preserve your hardwoods, wet mop high-traffic areas only twice a month. Areas that get less traffic can be cleaned monthly.
