Sažetak
In this research experimental and theoretical parameters of moisture, mass, volume and density of round and split firewood are explored, because of great importance to commercial trading with firewood. Firewood was made in specialized company using mechanised technology. The tools an machines which have been used were chainsaws, band saws and hydraulic log splitters. Each firewood piece was measured and marked with a purpose of measuring mass, dimensions and moisutre in green and dryish condition. Air drying was conducted on well- ventilated and sheltered company area from 20 March 2015 to 12 October 2015. The average value of firewood moisture before drying was 66.02%. In dryish condition, average value of firewood moisture was between 15.74% and 32.72%. Considering green condition, loss in mass was between 25.89 and 29.47%. Given the green condition, reducing the volume amounted to an average between 9.54 and 13.6%. Considering green condition, density was reduced between 14.73 and 19.24 %.
