This European Standard specifies the qualitative classification for the roundwood of spruces (Picea spp) and firs
(Abies spp). The classification is made either using Clauses 4 and 5 or using Annex A. Clauses 4 and 5 describe
the qualitative classification of round timber for which the intended use is unknown.
Informative Annex A gives a list of characteristics which serves as a guideline for contracts describing
qualities for round timber of spruces and firs where the intended use is known.
