Timber comes from trees and is classified as softwood or hardwood. Softwood comes from coniferous trees and hardwood from deciduous trees. Timber has micro and macro structures and can develop defects from conversion, fungi, insects, seasoning or natural forces. There are various wood products created through processes like veneering, plywood production, and impregnation of timber with resins. Proper seasoning and preservation of timber is required to improve its properties and increase durability.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Should cut parallel to layers/fibers
Don’t cross fibers while cutting
12. When heavy equipments falls on a finished surface,
depressions are formed.
3. Torn grain
Due to improper sawing of timber
4. Wane
Not affect strength, but affect appearence
13. 2. Defects due to fungus
Fungus attacks timber if
(i) moisture content > 20 % and
(ii) in presence of air.
Wood submerged in water will not affected by fungus
Wood having moisture content < 20 % will not affected
by fungus
14. 3. Dry rot
Certain fungus attack timber and convert it into powder form
4. Wet rot
Some fungus causes chemical decomposition of wood
that convert timber into greyish brown powder.
1. Blue stain
Sap of wood is stained to bluish colour by action of fungi
2. Sap stain
Sap wood losses its colour due to fungus attack.
15. 5. Brown rot
Rot means decay/disease of timber
Some fungus attacks cellulose White colour losses.
Thus brown colour of lignin dominates and wood seen
as brown colour.

stuck with a hammer.
Fungus develops holes in timber
17. 3. Defects due to natural forces
1. Burls
When tree gets shock/injury in its young age
Also known as excrescences
Due to such injury, growth of tree becomes completely
upset and irregular projections appear on the body of
timber.
2. Callus
Soft tissue or skin which covers the wound of a tree
18. 3. Chemical stain

Extends from pith to sapwood in
direction of medullary rays.
Due to maturity, inside starts shrinking
Divides tree into two or four parts
25. 10. Shakes
Cracks from bark towards sapwood.
d) Star shakes
Cracks upto sap only
Not reach heartwood or pith
Can remove outer area and use
Due to extreme heat or frost
26. 10. Shakes
Similar to star shakes
d) Radial shakes
Outer surface easily dries
Shrinks from outer to inner
But they are fine, irregular and numerous
Extends from bark towards center
27. 11. Twisted fibre
Also known as wandering hearts
Due to twisting of young trees by fast blowing wind
While sawing, it cuts fibers everywhere. Means it cannot
used by cutting. But can use as a single wood.
28. 12. Upset
Also known as rupture
Wood fibers injured by compression
Due to improper felling of trees
13. Water stain
Wood sometimes discolours when it
comes in contact with water
14. Wind cracks
If wood exposed to atmospheric agencies,
its exterior surface shrinks cracks
29. 4. Defects due to insects
3. Termites
White ants
1. Beetles
Creates holes in wood for food fine flour like powder
2. Marine borers
Salty waters make holes in timber for shelter
30. 5. Defects due to seasoning

flattens during drying.
8. Case hardening
Exposed surface of timber dries rapidly
Under Compression
Interior surface not completely dried
Under tension
35. 9. Radial shake
10. Honey combing
Due to stresses developed during drying, various
radial and circular cracks develop in the interior
portion of timber.
36. Seasoning of timber
Newly felled tree contains > 50 % water in form of sap
To use timber for engineering purposes, water should be
removed. (Timber should be dried)
Process of drying of timber to remove water is known as
seasoning.
Water is in the form of sap and moisture
37. Allows timber to burn rapidly, if used as fuel
To improve strength, hardness, stiffness, and
electrical resistance properties
To reduce tendency of timber to crack, shrink and warp.
To make the timber safe from attacks of insects and fungus.
To make the timber fit for uses for engineering purposes
Objects of Seasoning
Improves workability of timber
Reduces much of useless weight of timber
38. Methods of seasoning
Natural Seasoning Artificial Seasoning
When seasoning of timber
is carried out by natural air
or water.
39. Natural Seasoning
1. Water seasoning 2. Air seasoning
Timber is immersed in water
flow which helps to remove
the sap present in the timber
Allow timber to dry for
2 to 4 weeks
Arrange timber logs in layers
in a shed.
Air is circulated freely
between logs moisture
reduces
Slow process, but we get
well seasoned timber
40. Artificial Seasoning
1. Boiling
Timber allowed to
dry after boiling for
3 to 4 hours
2. Chemical
Timber stored in
salt solution. Salt
absorb water.
3. Kiln
Timber stored in
salt solution. Salt
absorb water.
4. Electrical
timber subjected
to high frequency
AC currents
41. Carried out to increase the life of timber
Preservation of timber
Preserve timber from decaying
To increase durability, to get rid of insects and fungi, etc.
Application of chemical substance on timber surface
Presevatives makes timber ‘poisonous’ for insects and fungi
without affecting the structural properties of timber.
42. Methods of Timber Preservation
Brushing
Spraying
Injecting under pressure
Dipping and stepping
Charring
Hot and cold open tank treatment
43. Types of preservatives for timber
Coal tar – heat and apply using brush
ASCU – powder dissolved in water and apply by spraying
Chemical salts – CuSO4, ZnCl
Oil paints
Solignum paints – applied using brush
Creosote oil
44. Wood products

Compreg timber
45. 1. Veneer
Thin sheets of wood of superior quality
Thickness = 0.4 mm to 6 mm
Obtained by rotating a log of wood against a
shark knife of rotary cutter
Dried in kilns to remove moisture
46. Process of preparing a sheet of veneer is
known as veneering.
Veneers are used to produce plywood's,
batten boards, and laminboards.
Glued on the surface of inferior wood to
create an impression that whole piece is
made of expensive timber
47. 2. Plywoods
Ply means thin layer
Veneers placed in both longitudinal and transverse
directions more strength
