Effects of Thinning on Wood Products

Purpose

To determine the effects of forest stand thinning in Douglas-fir on: (1) Juvenile, mature, and average specific gravity of wood in young-growth. (2) Mechanical strength properties of wood. (3) Wood utilization potential. (4) Knot size; potential value o
