Swedish term or phrase: strön
Anordning för stapling av långsträckta virkeselement och anbringande av strön

...en inrättning för att på ett lager av virkeselement i stapeln anbringa ett skikt bestående av ett antal tvärs virkeselementen sig sträckande strön.

I found the following description of what a strön is, but I don't know if there is a specific English equivalent.

För att underlätta luftens cirkulation i virkestorken används strön, det vill säga virkesstavar med dimensioner om oftast 23 x 45 mm som är utlagda i en välta för att skilja virkesvarven åt.

Also, Shorter Oxford English dictionary says:

sticker = A thin strip of wood placed between stacked logs or pieces of timber to allow for ventilation.
