Abstract

A good understanding of log valuation will help landowners, loggers, log buyers and saw millers agree on the fair value for a load of logs. This handbook briefly summarizes common log grading rules for hardwoods. Basic concepts in log scaling, lumber grading and log bucking optimization are also discussed because each of these topics relates to log grading.
