Footing Calculation Example
Volume = H/3 (A1+A2+(√A1 x A2)
A1 = 2 x 1.5 = 3 Sqm.
A2 = 0.5 x 0.3 = 0.15 Sqm.
H = 0.15m.
Now Volume = 0.15/3 x (3+0.15+(√3 x 0.15)
= 0.05 x (3.15+0.67)
= 0.19 m3
(V) = 0.19 m3

What Is Seasoning of Timber

Wood drying (also seasoning lumber or wood seasoning) reduces the moisture content of wood before its use. When the drying is done in a kiln, the product is known as kiln-dried timber or lumber, whereas air drying is the more traditional method. Seasoning is the process of removing the moisture content from wood to minimize structural problems when used in construction or to provide less smoke and more uniform combustion when used as firewood. There are two main ways of seasoning timber, Natural (Air) and Artificial (Kiln) drying. Both methods require the timber be stacked and separated to allow the full circulation flow of air, etc. around the stack. Air seasoning is the method used with the timber stacked in the open air.
