Item information

Title:
Piedmont Pulpwood Volume Tables (Winnsboro Research Center, Research Report No. 1)
Description:
The application of tables of volumes of individual trees to a timber cruise tree tally is confounded by so many reacting factors that it is a wonder a pulpwood cruise report ever approximates the scaled cord volume. Yet experienced cruisers generally come surprisingly close to scaled volumes of timber they are familiar with. This is because they have learned to adjust their cruises from seeing what is actually scaled when the timber is cut.
