Forestry / Wood / Timber
Swedish term or phrase: även om det inte är kapat
Excerpt from a text about the rating of timber:

"
[Den här text] är baserad på att det virke som sorteras är sågat med uttag ur stocken enligt sågningsmönster beskrivna på sidorna [X-Y] och att det bedöms som ett färdigjusterat virkesstycke i avsett längdmått, även om det inte är kapat.
"

What does "även om det inte är kapat" mean in this context?

Thanks for any assistance
