Sites which have species information and technical data relating to timber and timber flooring:
Timber Development Association (NSW) Ltd
Radial Timber
Radially-sawn timber is a good way to maximise yields from logs where a 'wedge' profile of cut does not involve downstream waste - decking, cladding
and outdoor structures. It is a good method of sawmilling for small diameter log - from which many mills have a poor recovery.
Private Forestry Southern Queensland
This is an informative website that supplies the relative values of different log grades at stumpage. Quite different to wholesale mill or chip prices for
processed product. These are forestry people who have a real commitment to the sustainability of forests, landcare and the supply of forest products into
the future.
Wood Solutions
This website provides good information on building in bushfire-prone areas as well as technical information on structural timber.
