Resin pockets, being an important natural characteristic for wood quality and tree physiology, were observed on the surfaces of boards sawn from four large Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) trees and analysed for size and distribution. Axial length varied between trees and increased from pith to surface and from butt to top; however, three quarters of the variation were random and normally distributed. Also resin pocket frequency varied between trees. Within the stem, the resin pockets remained independent and randomly distributed following the exponential distribution in all three directions: radial, angular and axial, corresponding to a constant probability during the lifespan of the tree. No association between size and frequency was identified. The initiation and the expansion of a resin pocket appear to be controlled by two different physiological processes. The findings should add to the understanding of resin pocket formation in spruce and should be applicable to wood quality

The project Woodflow is a 3-year project aiming at quantifying logistics costs for wood products in a supply chain from manufacturer to consumer. Woodflow is financed by the Research Council of Norway, Innovation Norway and Optimera AS. The work is carried out in Optimera’s distribution network in Norway. In this paper we present and discuss two methods for estimating time consumption, one for material handling and one for activities in the information flow. For material handling a method based on time studies has been modified and adapted to the situation in a distribution centre. For activities in the information flow performance measures of sales personnel are combined with information about registered orders to develop estimates for time consumption for entering orders and order lines. These will also be used to estimate time consumption for other tasks in the information flow. The estimates for time consumption will later be combined with the time costs of the performing actors to calculate logistics costs for material handling and for activities in the information flow.
