Board footage under the log scale rule above — a reporting figure, not what the optimizer maximises.
Solid BF
66.6 BF
Actual sawn board footage of this solution.
Invoice BF
90 BF
Board footage on the basis used for invoicing.
Recovery — green sawn
66.3%
Recovered immediately after sawing, before trimming.
Recovery — green trimmed

Recovery — finished/planed
57.1%
After planing to final dimension. Not greater than green trimmed.
Value
$62.88
Total value of this solution, from the active product price list.
The three recovery figures are successive stages — green sawn, then green trimmed, then finished/planed — and each is necessarily no greater than the one before it.
Centre cant
Appears when the solution produces a cant, with its resaw products listed.
