Lalram Thanga, Principal S ecretar y to the Govt. of Mizoram, Environment, Forest & Climate Change Department.- 7 -Ex-273/2017 Annexure I Assessment of Timber Requirement The Indian Plywood Industr y Resea rch and Training Institute (IPIRTI), Bangalore, an autonomous body under the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change ha s assess ed the timber requirement per unit for peeling length of 4 feet and 8 feet size in the plywood/veneer units a s 5 cu. mt. and 11 cu. mt. resp ectively per da y on an average of 8 working hours per day. By assuming that the peeling units work for 8 hours per day on an avera ge for 300 days in a year, the normal timber requirement of the peeling length of 4 feet size in veneer units is 1500 cu. mt. The total timber requirement for the stand alone veneer units may be assessed by calcula ting the equiva lent number of 4 feet length machines and by taking its normal installed capacity as 1500 cu. mt. per annum. The timber r equirement of a plywood unit may be taken as ‘nil’ on the ground that the round timber is used as timber in the veneer units only and that the plywood unit s are the secondary users which use the veneer as raw material produced by the veneer units. The plywood units use presses of various sizes such as 8x4x6, 8x4x12, 8x4x15, 4x4x7, 4x4x10. A 8x4x10 capacity press can produce upto 10 plywood pieces of 8’x4’ size per hour whereas a 8x4x15 capacity press can produce upto 15 plywood pieces of 8’x4’ size per hour and so on. The normative installed capacity of the plywood units will a ccordingly depend upon the number and the type of presses. This number and t ype of presses installed in each of t he plywood unit may be assessed and thereafter equivalent number or presses of 8x4x10 capacity may be calculated. The normative annual timber requirement for a integrated plywood unit having a 8x4x10 ca pacity press ma y be taken as 2000 cu.mt. per a nnum, a nd accordingly the total requirement of timber for the plywood units should be calcula ted.
