SUMMARY: By agreement, and in practice sometimes without that agreement, to sawmills sometimes
are delivered logs which do not fit regulations for standard saw logs. Often those logs are below standard
quality or dimensions. Namely, sawmills compensate the lack of standard saw logs, in aspiration to fully
use own capacities, by processing round wood with smaller dimensions; so called thin round wood. In this
form of sawmill raw material, diameter dimensions and more often quality are below regulations for sawmill
raw materials (sawmill logs). Diameter of thin round wood can range from 15 to 24 cm, and length
can range from 2 m and above.


Apart from thin round wood, high quality stacked wood in form of split or round wood (pulpwood, firewood,
chemical conversion wood and others) can be used as input raw material. Nevertheless, that sort of
raw material is infrequently used in large industrial sawmills, due to the problematic profitability of sawmill
processing and unique sawmill technological basis. Considering the yield at sawing of these logs it is
apparent that it is different from yield at processing of standard sawmill raw material.


Research aim of this paper was to determine volume yield, lumber value yield and log value yield of
common beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) logs with smaller diameter and quality during their processing dimension
stock and flooring components. The study is based on common beech trees harvested in Bosnia and
Hercegovina. The object of research were beech logs divided into three groups with mid diameter ranging
from 18 to 20, 21 to 23 and 24 to 26 cm (Table 1 to 3). Primary sawing of logs was performed by using live
sawing technique on long band saw. All obtained sawn boards were sawn up into dimension stock and flooring
components by cross – rip sawing method.


The best log volume yield in the form of dimension stock and flooring components showed logs with mid
diameter ranging from 24 to 26 cm, followed by logs with diameter from 21 to 23 cm, and logs with diameter
from 18 to 20 cm, with mutual insignificant difference (Figure 1 and Table 8). Results show that the best
quality dimension stock and flooring components were sawn from logs with mid diameter ranging from 21
to 23 cm, followed by logs with diameter from 24 to 26 cm, and logs with diameter from 18 to 20 cm (Figure
2 and Table 9) . The best log value yield results showed logs with mid diameter ranging from 24 to 26 cm,
followed by logs with diameter from 21 to 23 cm, and logs with diameter from 18 to 20 cm (Figure 3 and
Table 10).


The results confirmed some previous research. They indicate the possibility of successful processing of
this kind of raw material regarding the research of technological criteria. In doing so, raw material selection
and its qualitative classification is very important. Quality criteria and dimensions of dimension stock
and flooring components which will be produced from that raw material are also important. In this paper
the usage of three very confined diameter groups was compared. It was determined that there is slight but
insignificant mutual difference. With further research it should be considered if there is any sense comparing
such confined diameter groups, namely experiments should be set so that wider diameter groups are
compared. Considering the market status of beech sawmill products, more attention should be given to
economic indicators and success criteria of sawmill processing of this form of sawmill raw material.
