Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J.
Abstract:: The specification, inspection, and remedial treatment of utility poles are addressed. Included are discussions of enhancing specifications for improved performance, techniques for detecting decay and other defects, and chemical treatments available for arresting decay of poles in service.
Resource Type:: Technical Report

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J., Corden, M. E. (Malcolm E.), and Oregon State University. Department of Forest Products
Abstract:: Evaluation of previously established field trials of internal remedial treatments continues to verify the excellent long-term protection afforded by these treatments. Field trials with gell encapsulated methylisothiocyanate (MITC) demonstrate that gelatin does not interfere with chemical release, nor is addition of supplemental moisture required for release. Field trials have been...

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J., Corden, M. E. (Malcolm E.), and Oregon State University. Department of Forest Products
Abstract:: Evaluations of previously established field trials indicate that chioropicrin, and Vorlex continue to provide protection to Douglas-fir poles, although the degree of protection is diminishing. Reapplication of Vapam 18 years after the initial application eliminated fungi which had recolonized the poles. Methylisothiocyanate (MITC) continues to protect Douglas-fir poles 12 years...

Abstract:: Evaluation of previously established field trials of remedial internal treatments demonstrates the continued performance of chioropicrin, Vorlex, and methylisothiocyanate (MITC). While the degree of protection afforded by these treatments has declined with time, residual fungitoxic levels remain in many tests. Field trials of gelatin encapsulated MITC indicate that gelatin had...

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J., Corden, M. E. (Malcolm E.), and Oregon State University. Department of Forest Products
Abstract:: Evaluations of previously established field trials indicate that chioropicrin and Vorlex continue to provide a diminishing level of protection to Douglas-fir poles. Tests of solid methylisothiocyanate (MITC), now in their thirteenth year, indicate that this chemical continues to prevent recolonization of Douglas-fir poles by decay fungi. MITC appears to provide...
