Well, as a college professer at Harvard University, I can help.
First, you would take the formula v = bwh. This would give you v = 11.5 x 8 x h.
11.5 x 8 = 82. So now you have v = 82h. It is a rectangular prismatic shaped box, so it could be anything 82 or greater as the volume.
*NOTE: This is as much as I can help you with the information you have provided.
Thanks,
Mr. Mitchell
