Reference year 2026
Name
Dimension Lumber
Technical purpose of product or process Domestically produced cedar and cypress wood are classified as D1 species in the durability category under JAS standards. The heartwood part of the timber is an area where components with higher decay resistance have accumulated compared to sapwood. Cedar wood is characterised by having more reddish colouration compared to imported SPF timber.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
