The economic feasibility of preheating Douglas-fir blocks prior to peeling

Creator:

Baskin, Richard

Abstract:

Past research and industrial sources have implied that preheating Douglas-fir Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco prior to peeling veneer was economically feasible. To test this, the effect of treatment temperature on veneer yield and thickness variation for three diameter classes of low grade Douglas-fir logs was studied and related to the...

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...
