  1. HARDWOODS ARE GOOD Component 4 Task 4.3 Electronic assessment in relation to national wood classification systems. Project / Location

  2. Increasing global competition and expanding markets Early effort to simplify roundwood trading inside the EEC 1968 Guideline EEC 68/89 2008 cancellation of EEC in case of deregulation processes European Standards EN 1315-1 and EN 1316-1 – 3 but no legislation Several non compatible classification systems in Europe Hindrance for SMEs Why we need a unified classification system Project / Location

  3. State of the art analysis (pre-study) Collecting information about national classification systems and analysing the compatibility Feasibility study - Idea of a pilot Investigating the possibility of a common grading language and performing a feasibility study Development of a To-Be Concept of a web based tool for electronic assessment Realizations of the pilot system for electronic assessment Developing the aspired system upon the To-Be Concept Testing and evaluation of the pilot system for electronic assessment Improving the pilot system according to results of an international evaluation-questionnaire Component 4 Task 4.3 activities Electronic assessment in relation to national wood classification systems Project / Location

  4. request about national classification today's meeting concept document Timetable and work process Deadline for subtasks depending on 4.3? Project / Location

  5. Internet and literature research about hardwood roundwood classification in general Research regarding different systems inside the EU and development of European classification over the last decades Dialogue with Dr. Sauter of the Forest Research Institute in Baden-Württemberg, Germany about processes in European Standards Contact with the Ministry of Agriculture, the Environment and Consumer Protection Mecklenburg Vorpommern and requesting further information about the innovations inside the German wood trading Requesting information about national classification systems by the participating project partners Compile and analyse of publications (e.g. Georg-August-University Göttingen, Albert Ludwig University Freiburg, TU München) Work process Project / Location

  6. No European law after 2008 European Standards initialized by CEN Members EN 1315-1: Dimensional classification – Part 1 : Hardwood round timber EN 1316-1/2/3 : Hardwood round timber, Qualitative classification Part 1: Oak and beech; Part 2: Poplar; Part 3: Ash and maple and sycamore Sortierung von Holz und Holzwerkstoffen Sortierung von Holz und Holzwerkstoffen Present situation – European Union Project / Location

  7. Forst-HKS (Trade-Class-Assortment) Based on EEC/68/89 Regional additional regulations (loss of transparency) RVR (Agreement on Trade of Roundwood) Initiated by leading organisations of forest and timber industry Agreement of private law National basis for transparent movement / trade of roundwood Including of proven elements of Forst-HKS and EN Rahmenvereinbarung für den Rohholzhandel in Deutschland 2008 Present situation- Germany Project / Location

  8. Guideline by the VMR (Timber Measurement Council) General description of characteristics Process independent classification Company specific guideline Depending on further processes More specific for some characteristics Ignore unimportant characteristics Optical representation Kährs and Södra Virkesmätningsrådet Björk Guide IKEA of Sweden AB Björk Guide IKEA of Sweden AB Björk Guide IKEA of Sweden AB Present situation- Sweden Project / Location

  9. Present situation- Poland Project / Location

  10. Present situation- Lithuania Project / Location

  11. Basis for the development: Already existing standard / new and strongly simplified European Standards (EEC 68/89; EN 1315 and 1316) National Standard Intersection of national systems Dimensional and / or qualitative sorting Classification aiming at: Independent sorting of roundwood Application oriented classification Open Issues Project / Location

  12. Ideas for the realization: visual step by step assessment Pictures to enclose possible assortments ICT-Supported descriptions Literal instructions to fill in a Tickbox No space for woolly formulations Conversion functions Simple conversion between national classification systems Combination Pictures to enclose usage by system-own classification Convert this classification into national systems by conversion functions Open Issues Project / Location
