Parmi ces points, il a effectivement constaté qu'une grume d'iroko exploitée a été abandonnée et non marquée, ce qui relève incontestablement d'une faute de la part de WIJMA.

trunk of iroko
Declined
iroko is a variety of wood, and a 'grume' means a felled tree with the bark on.
I have a sneaking feeling that there is a more technical term for it than 'trunk', but for the moment I can't find it.

Tony M
: bodywood, mybe, but not 'bolt' — the 'grume' specifically means the undressed, uncut timber; but I'm not too sure 'bodywood' can be used as a countable like this? Still needs 'a...'

Thanks, Tony. I see what you mean about bodywood. rough timber was another option on IATE. though the uncountable pb comes up again.// could you say rough felled iroko, grume being one of those red herring words?

As Tony has intimated, there IS a highly technical translation of "grume", assuming "grume" is used in the highly technical sense!
grume - bois rond, non tronçonné
long pole - Round timber that has not been further crosscut
cf
bille - Bois rond, tronçonné
log - Crosscut portion of round timber
Je prends mes billes & I'll log off.
And remember, a grume is acitrusfruit.

: Note that R + C gives 'rough/undressed timber' for 'bois en grume'; cf. also various definitions quoted in GDT
