Abstract: The invention relates to a foot for a container (1) which is detachable from and attachable to the container and which consists of a vertical elongated foot stem (2) which will be situated against the container and which has attachment locks (3, 4, 4b) which will be situated in the container. One attachment lock (3), which preferably is the lower lock, consists of a fixed locking tongue (5) which is in the foot stem and which can be pushed (6) into the locking corner in the container (1) and which can be turned (7) into the locking position, at which the foot stem (2) becomes locked into the container. The other attachment lock (4, 4b), which preferably is the upper lock, is a hook shaped locking bolt which can be locked into another locking corner in the container.

Abstract: A method for identifying timber surface properties by using linearly polarized light. The polarization plane of the incident radiation is selected according to the object. The intensity components I.sub.min and I.sub.max having perpendicular polarization planes of the scattered radiation are measured, where the polarization plane of the component I.sub.max is the same as that of the incident radiation. On the basis of the quantities I.sub.min and ##EQU1## conclusions are drawn about the surface properties of the examined surface.
