Course Summary:

The purpose of this course is to provide a simplified but thorough explanation of the grading rules for American hardwood lumber. They were established over 100 years ago by the newly formed National Hardwood Lumber Association (NHLA). Today the NHLA has over 2,000 members worldwide and the NHLA rules are still the national standard for the U.S. hardwood industry and form the basis for grading of export lumber.

Learning Objective:

Wood is a natural material and by its very nature may contain different characteristics and defects that need to be understood and allowed for in any given application. The grading of sawn wood into categories as it is processed helps to determine to a large extent the value and potential use possible for each board of sawn lumber.
