Grade „PLUS” (grade A)

 

A Side: clear, without  knots (the allowed knot is to 5mm) without any defects (without changing of the color, without wood decay, without sapwood, without  mechanical damages, cracks, pavements). The core is not allowed.

 

Board, width 28 and 30mm: the damages are allowed in the middle of the board, if from one side till another there are 130mm to the bark. In that case, the reduction will be done, which will cover this damage.

 

Board, width 50+mm: the damages are allowed in the middle of the board, if from one side till another there are 150mm to the bark. In that case, the reduction will be done, which will cover this damage.

 

В Side: the same requirements as for the side A, but  one knot to 20mm for 1 linear meter is allowed.

The width 15 + cm (in general, the width  20cm)

The length 2.3 + m

The curvature: to 10mm for 1 linear meter

The core: The core is allowed, in case if there wasn’t any reduction.

Grade „STANDART” (grade АВ)

 

 

Side A: 3 knots to 30mm, or 2 knots to 40mm, or 1 knot to 50 mm without reduction. If there is the core – the reduction is done. (In the width 40-50mm – the reduction is 15 sm, in the width 30 mm – the reduction is 13 cm). The core is allowed to 50% of the width, without color changes, the core must have one color.

 

Allowed: propping out knots to 20mm.  If one side is clear, there could be alive knots on the other side.

 

Not allowed:

changing of the color,  wood decay,  sapwood,   mechanical damages, cracks, pavements

Board, width 50+mm: the damages are allowed  in the middle of the board, if from one side till another there are 150mm to the bark. In that case, the reduction will be done, which will cover this damage.

 

 

Side В: the same requirements as for the side A, the core without abrigment

The width: 15 + cm(in general, the width is from 20cm)

The length: 2300 + mm

 

The curvature: to 30 mm for 1 linear meter
