The classifications describe quality classes of round t

21、imbers for which the intended use is not known. The classification applies for the following species: Oaks, Quercus sessiliflora SALISB. (or Quercus petraea LIEBL.), Quercus robur L. (or Quercus pedunculata EHRH.) and Beech (Fagus sylvatica L). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whol

The grading is based on the following general de-scription of quality classes: Quality class A First quality timber: generally corresponding to a butt log with clear timber o

29、r with only minor features which do not restrict use. Quality class B Timber of average to first quality, with no specific requirements for clear wood. Knots are permitted to such an extent as is considered to be average for each species. Quality class C Timber of average to low quality, allowing al

30、l quality features which do not seriously reduce the natural features of the wood. Quality class D Timber which can be sawn into usable wood, which, because of its features, falls into none of the quality classes A, B or C. 4.3 Features to be taken into account for the classification The classes are

31、 defined more precisely in Table 1 for oak and Table 2 for beech. All the listed qualitative features in Table 1 and Table 2 shall be taken into account when a class is assigned and measurements shall be made according to EN 1309-2, EN 1310 and EN 1311. In the case of one feature exceeding the limit

32、 of the class, which would lead to a downgrading, the reduction of length or diameter excluding the feature may allow to remain in this class. This classification shall be completed with the Latin name of specified species. The abbreviation of this Latin name can also be used instead of the full nam
