| description | A study was undertaken to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of
Bayas wood, as the material is being promoted as the alternative raw material
for furniture utilization. According to BS373:1957 (Methods of testing small clear
specimen of timber), the samples are taken at different portion along the height
(top, middle and bottom portion) and different wood zone (outer, center, inner
zone) across the diameter of the trunk. The pattern of wood density, moisture
content and shrinkage of Bayas wood at different portion and temperature were
studied. The static bending tests were conducted to estimate the strength of the
wood. The results specify that the wood position and height of trunk give highly
significant value and varied within the trunk and at each height level. |
