Défauts dus au séchage
Ease of Drying: Air seasoning is slow, it is reported to be difficult. The air drying of 12 mm thick boards takes about 4 months. Drying Defects: It is prone to end splitting. There may be slight cupping, bowing or springing, and moderate checking occurring. Kiln Schedules: Schedule suggested for Balau.
