Methodology for locating defects within hardwood logs and determining their impact on lumber-value yield

A precise research methodology is described by which internal log-defect locations may help select hardwood log orientation and sawing procedure to improve lumber value. Procedures for data collection, data handling, simulated sawing, and data analysis are described. A single test log verified the m...

Summary:A precise research methodology is described by which internal log-defect locations may help select hardwood log orientation and sawing procedure to improve lumber value. Procedures for data collection, data handling, simulated sawing, and data analysis are described. A single test log verified the methodology. Results from this log showed significant differences in lumber-value yield due to circumferential log orientation and sawing method
