Abstract:: The potential for using pretreatment with cinnamon leaf oil or juniper foliage oil to improve the durability of viscoelastic thermal compression (VTC)–treated hybrid poplar was explored in a field termite test and a laboratory mold test. The addition of oils prior to VTC processing had variable effects on resistance to...

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J., Sinha, Arijit, Clauson, Milo, and Love, Connie S.
Abstract:: Routine inspection of wood utility poles to detect internal decay involves drilling holes at or about the ground line. While these holes are useful for detecting internal decay, their presence raises concern among engineers about their potential effects on pole flexural properties. The effect of inspection holes on flexural properties...

Abstract:: The objective of this study was to test a method under development for assigning allowable properties to foreign species graded by American Lumber Standard machine-stress-rated (MSR) rules. The method was tested on dahurian larch (Larix dahurica), a major softwood species that grows in the Russian Far East and could be...

Abstract:: The effect of metal end plates on reducing checking of pentachlorophenol-treated Douglas-fir crossarms was evaluated over 13 wet–dry cycles. Check development was variable over the first three to four cycles, and then steadily increased for both plated and nonplated ends of arms; however, both the number of checks and the...

Creator:: Long, Brady and Morrell, Jeffrey J.
Abstract:: Preservative treatments are required whenever glued laminated beams are exposed outdoors. Treatments can be either water-based systems applied to individual laminations prior to layup or organic solvent–borne systems applied after the beams are fabricated. Water-based systems are not recommended for posttreatment because of concerns over checking and the potential for...

Abstract:: The resistance of three naturally durable heartwood species and a stranded giant bamboo product to fungal and termite (Coptotermes formosanus) attack was evaluated at a test site located near Hilo, Hawaii. Merbau (Intsia bijuga or I. palembanica) and ipe (Tabebuia spp.) were both exceptionally resistant to fungal and termite attack,...

Abstract:: The potential of 17 hydroxylamine derivatives as wood preservatives was assessed on ponderosa pine sapwood blocks exposed to one of two decay fungi: Gloeophyllum trabeum or Trametes versicolor. Weight losses on untreated controls were generally lower with the white-rot fungus (T. versicolor) averaging 30.4 percent, while those for the brown-rot...

Abstract:: The effect of copper naphthenate treatment on electrical resistance of Douglas-fir utility poles was compared with similar poles either left untreated or treated with pentachlorophenol (penta). Penta-treated and untreated wood had similar electrical resistance shortly after treatment and after a 3-month outdoor weathering period. Electrical resistance of copper naphthenate– treated...

Abstract:: Wood-plastic composites are generally presumed to be inherently more resistant to moisture uptake than solid wood, but there is little data on the relative rates of moisture uptake in these materials over time. Trex[R] and Strandex[R] deck sections were immersed in water for up to 215 days, then sections were...

Abstract:: Mold and stain fungi can be easily controlled by kiln-drying, but even this material can be rewetted during shipping and storage, allowing fungi to colonize the wood. The potential for using surface spray treatments with commercial formulations containing combinations of propiconazole, didecyldimethyl ammonium chloride, or 3-iodo-2-propynyl butylcarbamate to protect kiln-dried...
