Abstract

This paper presents 38 composite volume and value tables for hardwood pulpwood. Values are given for multiples of commonly used bolt lengths - 4, 5, and 8 feet - and may be applied, generally, to standing trees of all hardwood species. The volume tables resemble closely the Lake States Composite Volume Tables, but extend them to other units of measure: cubic feet, tons, cubic meters, and metric tons. The value tables give dollar values for individual trees at a wide range of pulpwood prices. Both sets of tables may be used with either entire trees or the pulpwood portions of sawtimber trees. Examples of such applications are provided.
