I'm calculating a wind force on some debris netting. I need to convert astm D737-96 Air permeability to a % void.

The Air permeability is 4,373.5 CFM/SF. I need to convert this into a percent void. I know the answer is around 50%. I also know that it involves a portion of the wind pressure formula 0.00256*V^2. I haven't had enough coffee yet today.
Thanks!
