Abstract

Lumber grade yields and recovery ratios obtained for old-growth Douglas-fir logs are presented for two log scaling and grading practices.The logs were bucked from trees selected from commer- cial sawtimber stands throughout the west-side Douglas-fir region.The lumber yield information is presented for 2 3 980 woods-length logs scaled by Forest Service west-side log scaling rules.The lumber yield information is also presented for 4 3 974 sawn-length logs essentially scaled by Forest Service east-side log scaling rules.
