PROCESSING OF TIMBER

1-                  Felling of trees

2-                  Seasoning of trees

3-                  Conversion of timber

4-                  Prevention of timber

FELLING OF TREES

In this process we generally cut the trees. We cut the trees of age 50-100 years of age so that it has the required strength. In hilly area we generally cut the trees in winter and in plain area we generally cut the trees in summer.

SEASONING OF TREES

In this process the sap of the wood is remove out inorder to control the growth of the trees.and moisture of the the trees can be controlled .

     TYPE OF SEASONING –

1-    NATUALLY SEASONING

2-    ARTIFICIALLY SEASONING

NATURALLY SEASONING

In this process the natural method is used  of drying but in this method no proper temperature and we usually see the un even drying which is not good to prepare the good material.

ARTIFICIALLY SEASONING

Various method is used for artificially drying done by different method-

1-              Electrolyte method

2-              Boilling method

3-              Salt method

4-              Kiln method

             CONVENTIONAL OF TIMBER

The conventional of timber can be done to cut the tree so after transportation to the required place it can convert into desirable shape.

1-              Ordinary sawing

2-              Quadental sawing

3-              Radial sawing

4-              Tangential sawing

This all type of sawing process the strength we can get in the radial sawing but maximum wastage we get and less wastage we get in the ordinary sawing.
