Firewood is split so that it will start and burn more readily providing quicker and a hotter heat. If firewood were left "in the round" it will take forever to start (likely never). The slender peices make for better handling as well. To help it dry faster and to provide greater surface area when you're trying to build the fire.
Firewood typically will reach its driest state after about 9 months, or more importantly, one summer. The heat, wind, and lack of precipitation are what dry the wood. After a summer, the wood will reach a moisture content of about <20 %. Once it reaches this state, it doesn't matter if the wood is 9 months or 9 years, the wood won't get any drier. There are variables such as wood type, weather conditions, air flow etc., but typically a summer season is the most crucial factor. It should be noted that wood has to be cut AND split in order to dry in this period. Wood that is cut for 9 months and then split a week prior to being sold will not be dry. With this drying schedule, it becomes apparent how much time goes into producing good dry firewood.

To safely and efficiently split firewood using a firewood hatchet, start by wearing protective gear like gloves and safety glasses. Place the wood on a stable surface and aim for the center of the log when striking with the hatchet. Use controlled swings and avoid overexerting yourself. Additionally, consider using a chopping block or a log splitter for larger pieces of wood.
firewood is made from cutting down trees and cutting and splitting the wood into suitable sized pieces for firewood. this can be for eg by using a chainsaw and an axe or by firewood processor
Sweet gum trees are not considered ideal for firewood as they tend to produce a lot of ash and can be difficult to split. Additionally, the wood may not burn as efficiently or cleanly as other hardwoods, so it is not typically sought after for firewood. There are better options available for firewood that are easier to split and provide more heat.
There is a specification sheet in the manual and on the side of the box for your firewood rack. This rack can hold many large pieces of wood, as long as they do not go over the op of the rack itself.

To safely and efficiently split firewood with an axe, follow these steps: Choose a flat and stable surface to work on. Wear safety gear such as gloves, goggles, and sturdy shoes. Position the log vertically on the chopping block. Hold the axe with both hands and aim for the center of the log. Swing the axe with controlled force, using your body weight to generate power. Keep your hands away from the blade and maintain a safe distance from others. Repeat the process until the log is split into manageable pieces.
To effectively start a fire using firewood, follow these steps: Gather dry firewood and kindling. Build a small structure with the kindling at the base. Place larger pieces of firewood on top in a crisscross pattern. Use matches or a lighter to ignite the kindling. Gradually add more firewood as the fire grows. Ensure proper ventilation and safety precautions.
A firewood processor is a machine that is designed to split and cut firewood with a minimum of handling by the user. They are sold under brand names Wood Beaver, Badger and Chomper. They may be available through one's local Craigslist or by eBay listing, if not at one's local supply house.

Splitting firewood can be done mechanically or by hand. A hydraulic wood splitter can make splitting large amounts of firewood easy. These units can be expensive, around $1,000 for one powered by a gas engine. Splitting firewood by hand using a splitting axe or maul is the more traditional way. The Fiskars x27 splitting axe is a great tool. Place the log to be split on top of another larger log to prevent the axe head from going into the dirt. A maul is heavier and can wear you out quickly even though it does work well. The species of wood will dictate how easy it is to split. Some woods like ash are known to split easily, while others can be much more difficult.
