The article provides the information on the manchurian fir bodywood branchiness. Branchiness is an important flaw in the wood. While growing three unequally valued for the national economy zones are formed in the tree: a branchless zone (the most valuable), zones of dead and live branches. The branchless zone is characterized by the distance to the first dead knot, the area of dead branches is determined by the difference between the attachment height of the first live knot and the attachment height of the first dead knot, and the rest of the trunk is occupied up to the top by a zone of live knots.
