About This Item
TS EN 844-2 is a terminology standard for the general terms and definitions used for round timber. In wood technology and timber trade, it helps establish a common vocabulary so that the same material is described consistently across harvesting, grading, measurement, purchasing and transport contexts. The document concerns the naming of the timber material itself and the basic concepts used around it; it is a definition reference rather than a product, material or test specification.
Why round timber terminology matters
Round timber generally refers to wood in log form that has retained its basic cylindrical shape after felling. In practice, clear terminology is important when people need to distinguish dimensions, bark, defects, length, quality and degree of processing. Consistent definitions reduce ambiguity in technical communication and commercial documentation, especially where multiple parties handle the same timber along the supply chain. This standard supports that shared language at the general-concepts level.
