This report provides 1977 estimates of all uses of wood-lumber, logs and bolts, plywood and veneer, hardboard, insulation board, particleboard, and medium-density fiberboard-in all phases of manufacturing. Changing trends and patterns are examined. Included are the quantities of wood products used for materials handling (pallets and skids), packaging, shipping (dunnage, blocking, and bracing), and the making of jigs, models, patterns, and flasks used in the manufacturing process, as well as the actual quantities of wood in the final product itself.
