60 50 40 30 20 10 0 20 22.5 25 27.5 30 32.5 35 37.5 40 Moisture Content (%) Figure 23. This graph shows what the moisture content distribution might look like for a load of 150 air-dried boards. In this example, I chose to use a species (black cherry) where the sawyer probably slabs off most of the sapwood, so the individual board MCs probably started out more similar than a mixed heartwood-sapwood pack. The average MC in this plot is 30%. Your challenge as a hardwood drying supervisor or kiln operator is to accept lumber with a range of moisture contents (as above, perhaps) and reduce not only it’s moisture content but also the variability of its moisture content. As you finish drying, your goal will probably be to have the moisture content of every board within 1% of your target MC. If your target MC was 7%, your final moisture distribution should look something like Figure 24: 39 No. of BoardsPDF Image | HARDWOOD DRY KILN OPERATION A MANUAL FOR OPERATORS OF SMALL DRY KILNS
