This term can refer to converting raw timber into dimensional lumber or to a set of formula used to convert the weight of various types of lumber to a volume.
This industry includes establishments primarily engaged in sawing rough lumber and timber from logs and bolts, and separately operated planning mills.
Why are japanses houses usually one story with a timber frame
Quarter Sawn timber is more resistant to warping, (cupping, twisting etc.) It also resisits moisture penetration. Timber cut this way usually has better aesthetic looks, sometimes showing the rays. This timber shrinks more in the width than the length and not as much as plain cut/ through and through (slab) It is usually more expensive due to more wood being wastes and the increased amount of labour.
Usually hardwood
Usually, yes :)
A tree that has been felled and is being cut into boards and planks is typically referred to as "lumber" or "timber." The process of cutting the tree into these materials is known as "sawing." Depending on the context, you might also hear the term "sawn timber" to describe the finished product.
To convert meters to lineal meters, you need to know the dimensions of the timber. Lineal meters refer to the length of a piece of timber. If you know the width and depth of the timber, you can calculate the lineal meters by dividing the total meters by the sum of the width and depth. Alternatively, if the timber is in standard dimensions, you may need to provide that information for a more accurate calculation.
a dimension of 3 inches x 4 inches, usually a size of timber
Lineal metres = Square metre/Width of the timber.So linear metres = 20/0.083 = 240.96 metres.
There are many issues that can effect the quality of wood & timber. Defects usually mean that a quality piece of timber can be sold at a discounted price.
