Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a cover structure (1) for a wood storage area for drying stacked wood (13), comprising a roof (3) having a length dimension greater than the width dimension, which roof (3) is supported on a supporting structure comprising two or more vertical supports (5) arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of the roof (3) with respect to each other, which supports are positioned closer to the centre of the roof, seen in transverse direction, than to a side edge of the roof extending in the longitudinal direction of the roof, wherein said vertical supports (5) form an open spatial structure. The present invention further relates to a method wherein stacked wood (13) stored on a floor (17) under an elongated cover structure (1) that provides protection from the sun is dried under controlled conditions, characterised by arranging at least two rows of stacked wood (13) some distance apart under a cover structure (1), so that a ventilation channel (8) is formed between the at least two rows of wood (13), the cover structure (1) and the floor (17).
