As part of my Advisor Role with Timber Exchange in Sweden, I would like to invite you to attend our upcoming Webinar with Timber Product Inspection  on Tuesday January 18th at 13:30 Central European time, or 07:30 EST and 04:30 PST (sorry!) A replay will be available later in the week!

The event will be a panel discussion with our two guests:

• David Conner (Senior Vice President Operations, TPI) and his colleague
• Robin Lillandt (Senior European Representative, TPI).

Together they can give a comprehensive overview of the timber grading rules, their history, function, application, sawmill qualification process, inspection and more. This webinar will follow the following structure:

• What led to the creation of the American Lumber Standard Committee (discussing ALSC’s history and their current day to day function)
• Why do we have grade rules (discussing the US building code system’s International Building Code (IBC) and the National Grade Rule (NGR))?
• How are the grade rules created and published (discussing NGR committee and the rules-writing agencies)
• How are design values established for dimension lumber (discussing ASTM D1990 process)
• What are the phytosanitary requirements for lumber imported into the US?
• What is the qualification process?
• How does a monthly routine inspection work?
• What does ALSC do during their routine inspection?

Followed by a Q&A session with the audience

We look forward to your attendance at the Webinar and/or its replay!
