The cost of seasoning of timber will naturally depend on the thickness of the timber and the type of timber with respect to seasoning. It will be more for highly refractory timbers and less for non-refractory timbers. The period or time for seasoning of timber will also vary with the thickness of timber and type of timber with respect to seasoning.
Time for Seasoning of Timbers:
| Type of timber | Thickness in mm | |||
| 12 | 25 | 38 | 50 | |
| Non-refractory | 6 days | 8 days | 12 days | 17 days |
| Moderately refractory | 7 days | 10 days | 14 days | 18 days |
| Highly refractory | 9 days | 12 days | 17 days | 22 days |
A 12 mm thick moderately refractory timber requires 7 days for seasoning. Hence option (3) statement is incorrect.
