Carbon fiber as a resistive heat generator to accelerate adhesive cure in reinforced wood laminates

Creator:

Liem, Jeffry

Abstract:

As a result of its atomic structure, carbon fiber produced from mesophase pitch has a high electrical conductivity and high tensile strength. Others have used carbon fiber as a resistive heating unit to accelerate matrix solidification in carbon fiber-polymer matrix composites. In this study, a unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced polymer...

An investigation into the dynamics of RF LVL pressing

Creator:

Rowell, Daniel Lee

Abstract:

The dynamics of radio frequency (RF) laminated veneer lumber (LVL) pressing are explored for the purpose of optimizing this process. The RF LVL press at the Albany Trus Joist plant is the focus of this investigation. The investigation first focuses on bond strength development characteristics of the Georgia Pacific adhesive...

Life cycle inventory of laminated veneer lumber and composite I-joist manufacturing

Creator:

Dancer, Eric R.

Abstract:

The objective of this study is to complete life cycle inventories (LCI) for laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and composite I-joist (I-joist) production in the two main forest products producing regions in the U.S., the Pacific Northwest (PNW) and Southeast (SE). LVL and I-joists are composite wood building materials that are...
