The Biggest Box POW

Picture
Description: Given a single piece of 8.5”x11” paper, how can you build an open lid box that holds the most volume possible? The box must consist of a minimum of four "sides" and a "bottom," but it should not include a "top." You can cut and tape pieces of paper together in any way as long as your final product is a box, and is constructed from a single piece of 8.5”x11” paper. You can construct as many boxes as possible, but your main goal is to maximize volume. 

Question: Given a fixed amount of materials, how can I build a box with maximum volume?
