For economical reasons, the veneers should be dried quickly and without damage. High temperatures shorten …

In the simplest terms, the modulus of elasticity (MOE) measures a wood’s stiffness, and is a good overall indicator of its strength. … Technically it’s a …  determining plywood mechanical properties such as bending strength and modulus of elasticity through predictive models using more-easily obtained properties is a very useful tool for in-factory quality control. Mechanical properties of wood play an important role when used for different …

MODULUS OF ELASTICITY Search In the simplest terms, the modulus of elasticity (MOE) measures a wood’s stiffness, and is a good overall indicator of its strength. Modulus of elasticity (MOE) testing Technically it’s a measurement of the ratio of stress placed upon the wood compared to the strain (deformation) that the wood exhibits along its length. MOE is expressed in …

Plywood Static Bending Strength Test

Find out what engineers mean by the words “strength and stiffness” and watch a bending test on a wooden joist.  We do lots of tests like this because we need to calibrate our non-destructive methods of measurement.

Wood is commonly tested for flexural strength. This video shows a 2 x 4 supported on each end by supports. A universal testing machine is used to apply force to the middle of the 2 x 4 until failure occurs. Load and position data are acquired and plotted. By taking the geometry of the 2 x 4 into account as …
