This standard specifies the methods of measuring features taken into account in the visual grading of sawn, processed and round timber for appearance or to assess its mechanical properties. It does not apply to the strength grading of structural timber (see EN 518 and EN 519). This standard applies to hardwood and softwood sawn timber, both square edged and unedged, to processed timber and to round timber. This standard does not apply to tropical timber.
