WOOD DESCRIPTION: 
The sapwood is lighter in colour, usually greyish and distinct from the heartwood, which is light pink to light red or light brown.
 
DEFECTS:                     
The presence of brittle heart is more severe and wide spread in LRM than in DRM. The defect is often accompanied by advanced stages rot resulting in hollow cores in old and over-matured trees. It can be readily identified on the sawn end of the affected part, which is rough and irregular in outline. The frequent transvere fracture of the fibre on the sawn surface is further evidence of its presence. LRM timbers are liable to attack by 'shot-hole' and 'pin-holed' beetles and in some cases it can be quite severe.
                                  
USES:                            
Popular as general utility timber, being suitable for furniture, interior finishing, panelling, partitioning, mouldings, skirtings, decorative works, joinery, shop and office fittings, flooring, decking, posts, beams, joists, rafters, ornamental items, plywood and light constructions works.
