The mean volume of stands with fir and beech in their species composition in the study plots Święty Krzyż 1 and Święty Krzyż 2 was 521 m3/ha and 203 m3/ha respectively. These stands were many-storeyed and of many generations with the structure of the distribution of trees by d.b.h. close to Liocourt-Meyer curve. In volume of standing dead trees and dead wood laying on the ground, amounting together to 41.1% of stand volume of living trees in the plot Święty Krzyż 1 and 171.6% in the plot Święty Krzyż 2, predominated fir 99.4% and 100% in total volume of standing dead trees, and 46,2% and 82% in total volume of laying dead wood in respective plots. Fir was most abundant in the new growth layer (78.3% in the plot Święty Krzyż 1, and 39% in the plot Święty Krzyż 2), while beech decidedly dominated in the upgrowth layer (54.2% and 50.8% in respective plots). The stand in the plot Święty Krzyż 1 was considered to be in the growing up stage with the phase of storeyed form, while the one in the plot Święty Krzyż 2 in a transitional stage between the break up stage and the growing up stage with an intermediate phase between the regeneration phase and the phase of storeyed form.
