In that the crosscut wood is represented in the decor itself, only a suitable decor must be designed and is it not necessary to provide separate covering at the respective locations. It is clear that, when imitating planks, such visual edge effect shall be represented at the short sides of these planks. |

Explanation:
Aunque el verbo es trozar ( o tronzar), el adjetivo más común de acuerdo con en DRAE y con el diccionario forestal de la Sociedad Española de Ciencias Forestales es tronzado o tronzada. Lo cito aquí:
Tronzado: acción de cortar perpendicularmente a la fibra una rama, un tronco o piezas largas de madera, produciendo un extremo o testa y exhibiendo una sección transversal. Suele ser aplicado a la operación de cortar las trozas en un árbol ya derribado. Inglés: cross-cutting.
Así es como se dice en el mundo forestal, donde normalmente hablamos de madera tronzada, y no trozada (por lo menos en español de España).
