Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone involved in the use of timber, from engineers and manufacturers to forestry students. It delves into the fundamental properties of wood, exploring its strength, how it is affected by moisture, and the impact of various treatments. The author meticulously examines the results of numerous tests conducted by the Forest Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, offering a deep understanding of the mechanical properties of different species of wood. The book also delves into the complex processes of wood seasoning, including air-drying and kiln-drying, revealing the critical role these methods play in maximizing the strength and durability of lumber. A major focus is on the practical application of these findings, with extensive discussions on the grading of structural timbers, the establishment of working stresses for various applications, and the evaluation of the strength of wooden products, such as vehicle parts and packing boxes. Ultimately, the book presents a comprehensive and detailed analysis of wood, highlighting its inherent strengths and limitations, and providing essential knowledge for building and construction in a time of rapidly expanding industry and development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
