The mechanical properties of fibre-managed Eucalyptus nitens (E. nitens) cross-laminated timber (CLT) have previously been extensively studied, proving the material to be structurally safe and reliable. However, the vibration performance of CLT manufactu...

In the present work, single- and double-dowel joints following different geometric configurations are experimentally and numerically investigated to derive the splitting behaviour of beech wood (Fagus sylvatica L.), one of the most widespread hardwood sp...

Beech (Fagus Sylvatica L.) is a prevalent tree species in Slovenia and is suitable for manufacturing glulam beams. However, beech wood has certain limitations that can potentially be mitigated by combining it with Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) ...

In this study, the preliminary serviceability performance of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels constructed from fibre-managed Eucalyptus nitens (E. nitens) was investigated via bending and vibration tests. Linear four-point bending tests were performed...

Significant volumes of plantation hardwood are available in Australia to produce value-added engineered wood products such as cross-laminated timber (CLT). To validate the possibility of utilising this available resource, the bending structural propertie...

The questing behaviors of blacklegged ticks (Ixodes scapularis) are largely regulated by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and vegetation. While this relationship is relatively clear at the macro- and meso-spatial scales, it is inadequ...

We hypothesized that the type of wood, in combination with the grit size of sandpapers, would affect sanding efficiency. Fixed factors were used in the experiment (a belt sander with pressure p = 3828 Pa, and a belt speed of vs = 14.5 m/s) as well as var...

Wood dust generated during woodworking?particularly from hardwood species during sanding?poses a health and safety hazard to workers in the wood industry. This study aimed to determine the particle-size distribution of selected hardwood species and the c...
