Properties of UK-Grown Sitka Spruce: Extent and Sources of Variation. (2008)
Journal Article
Moore, J., Lyon, A. J., Ridley-Ellis, D., & Gardiner, B. A. (2008). Properties of UK-Grown Sitka Spruce: Extent and Sources of Variation. Timber Engineering,

Structural timber produced from Sitka spruce plantations in the UK typically achieves the requirements for the C16 strength class. However, very little is known about the variability of this plantation resource, or the factors that contribute to this...
