Understanding the relationship of lumber yield and cutting bill requirements: a statistical approach
… have been placing heavy emphasis on lumber yield improvements in recent years. More attention has been on lumber grade and cutting technology rather than cutting bill design. However, understanding the underlying physical phenomena of cutting bill requirements and yield is essential …

Activity-based product costing in a hardwood sawmill through the use of discrete-event simulation
… diameter, on the cost of producing hardwood lumber, using the activity-based costing technique. The usual technique of calculating hardwood lumber product costs is based upon traditional cost accounting, where manufacturing costs are allocated to the products based upon the volume of each …

Development of dimension lumber grade and yield estimates for yellow-poplar sawlogs and trees
… are underutilized. At present, dimension lumber used in light frame construction is almost exclusively manufactured from softwood species. Recent literature, research, and conferences have pointed to the possibility and feasibility of using yellow-poplar dimension lumber. It is an accepted …

Evaluation of color-based machine vision for lumber processing in furniture rough mills
… system under development at Virginia Tech for lumber processing in the furniture rough mill. The evaluation was done by conducting a yield study using 134 red oak boards. ROMI-RIP, a rip-first simulation program by Thomas (1995), was used to simulate yields for both the manually digitized …
