  • Description: <jats:p>Stocks of large dimension wood continue to increase, especially of medium quality classes B and C. Apart from newly built major sawmills, small and medium sized sawmills are also beginning to specialise in the processing of large diameter softwood of 3 – 6 m in length. In its turn, this is leading to changes in wood-logging techniques and quality grading. Different methods of harvesting are presented, as well as a detailed discussion of wood-grading methods.</jats:p>
