A series of images to demonstrate the correct procedures for measurement of tree and timber volumes with metric measuring equipment. Here the metric girthing tape is shown correctly positioned around the tree and reads 53 centimetres girth diameter. Photos by IAA.

The year of metrication may have been 1973 – can anyone confirm
