This short course will provide practical knowledge about how lumber is effectively kiln dried and scientific background on related wood properties and processes. It will have value for the beginner as well as experienced kiln operators and with supervisors, sales, and marketing personnel. Instruction, by university faculty and industry experts, will be both in the classroom and through hands-on lab exercises using our 1,000 BF steam-heated dry kiln. This is a “hands-on” course where you will learn by hearing, seeing, and most importantly, by doing!
