Scope
GB/T 36870-2018 is the English-translated version of 主要商品木材树种代号.
GB/T 36870-2018 assigns short letter codes to the main commercial timber species produced in China, for use with domestic logs and sawn timber. Species are listed in alphabetical order of their Latin names and, within a genus, in the order used by GB/T 16734-1997, the list of names of the main Chinese woods.
Each code is four capital letters built from the genus and species names, as with CUFU for Cupressus funebris Endl. Where the species is not determined, the genus letters are followed by XX, as with ABXX for Abies spp., and separate rules cover varieties and codes that would otherwise repeat.
Table 1 gives the full list, with the Chinese, English and Latin names of each timber. The standard was issued on 17 September 2018 and has applied since 1 April 2019.
