Side cuts are defined as a by-product (boards) which is produced “on the side” during the production of a main product (timber, dimension goods). Side products are therefore not specifically produced, but are involved in general production. Therefore it is possible that certain side products are not always available in the desired lengths and dimensions. The classic by-products are boards. Boards are classified according to Tegernseer customs and DIN 68365 in grades.
An important note, however, is that boards which have to withstand static loads must always be classified and produced in accordance with DIN 4074, DIN 1052.In this case, the board is still a board by dimension, but the by-product (side product) becomes a high-quality main product (dimensional product) at correspondingly higher prices.
