  1. Proceedings, 21st international nondestructive testing and evaluation of wood symposium

    The 21st International Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation of Wood Symposium was hosted by the Forest Research Institute Baden-Württemberg (FVA) in Freiburg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, September 24–27, 2019. This symposium was a forum for those involved in nondestructive testing and evaluation (NDT/NDE) of wood and brought together many international researchers,...

  2. Nondestructive evaluation of tensile properties of structural lumber from the spruce-pine-fir species grouping: phase 1 evaluation of modulus of elasticity

    The study summarized in this report was conducted to examine the relationships between nondestructive evaluation parameters and the modulus of elasticity (MOE) of spruce–pine–fir structural lumber. A random sample of lumber was obtained from a local lumber yard and conditioned to approximately 10% equilibrium moisture content in the laboratory. Static bending and...

  3. Comparing idealized acoustic wave behavior to that observed in clear wood and lumber

    In this paper, the behavior of an acoustic wave within an idealized wood specimen are compared and contrasted to the acoustic behavior observed in clear wood and lumber using signal processing and analysis. Published information on the physical and mechanical properties of clear, defect-free wood is used to derive a model of acoustic wave behavior. The model closely...

  4. Utility of image software in quantification of termite damage on cross-laminated timber (CLT)

    Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) is part of a new generation of engineered wood products that are now widespread across Europe, Australia, and Canada. As this trend is now growing in the United States, manufacturers are looking to expand the use of CLT into the North American market, which includes states located in the southeastern U.S. As this region is known to have an...
