Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The timber quality inventory described recognizes and measures the basic stem characteristics and defect features that influence quantity and quality for most primary products. Stem features measured on sample trees include form defects, scar defects, and knot or limb characteristics. Timber inventory data obtained are used in conjunction with standard methods of estimating volume, scaling, and grading to estimate: (1) Gross volume suitable for a primary product; (2) Probable volume reduction due to visual scaling defects, and remaining net volume suited to the product; (3) Quality of the timber in terms of existing grading or quality classification systems.

Download or read book Nondestructive Evaluation of Wood written by Forest Service (U S ) and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2015 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nature's engineering of wood through genetics, wind, and weather creates a wide variability in wood as a material. Consequently, manufacture and users of wood products are frequently frustrated in dealing with the forest resource. Manufacturers sometimes argue that wood is difficult to consistently process into quality products because of the wide range of properties that exist in this raw material. Users of wood products can be equally frustrated with the performance variability found in finished products. Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technologies have contributed significantly toward eliminating the cause of these frustrations. NDE technologies have been developed and are currently used in lumber and veneer grading programs that result in engineered materials that have consistent well-defined performance characteristics. This brief volume explores some of the processes that are used to manufacture wood, including green wood technology and provides a bit of history to wood production and its uses too.
