This standard establishes a system of strength classes for general use in structural codes. It gives characteristic strength and stiffness properties and density values for each class and the rules for allocation of timber populations (i.e. combinations of species, source and grade) to the class. This standard applies to all softwood and hardwood timber for structural use.
