For other pieces grading is made on faces and edges. The size, position and frequency of features, sawing defects and deter

31、iorations are taken into account. Non-conformity with the conditions applicable to any one of these elements is sufficient todowngrade the piece.Dimensional variation is not taken intoaccount for qualitygrading of the pieces. It isalready covered byEN 1313-2 or by any specific requirements defined c

For mixed grade batches th

33、e minimum proportion of each grade shall be identified.4.2.2.2 BoulesRecognising the characteristics inherent in a growing tree, a boule may comprise a number of un-edgedboards of different grades.Proportion of grades allowed within a boule is given inTable 1:Table 1 Proportion of grades allowed wit

46、urement, the quality is determined by the face, the width of which is measured.b) For boulesTake into account features which are on the upper face in the stacking position to form the boule.c) For strips and square edged timberTake into account features which are on the best face.7.2 Un-edged boards

47、7.2.1 Grading areaA notional area of 0,2m x 2,0 m containing the maximum number or the largest features on the grading facedetermines the grade of each board.Features located less than 10 cm from edges or ends of un-edged boards are not considered, unless theresulting width and length is insufficien
