Strength and modulus of elasticity of pine structural round timber

Abstract

Strength and modulus of elasticity of pine structural round timber. The article presents the results of the basic physical and mechanical properties of pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) structural round timber originated from Lesser Poland natural-forest region. Based on the tests and determination of characteristic values according to the European Standards for structural timber with rectangular cross-section, it was found that tested population could be assigned to a strength class C30. Determined bending strength dependence on modulus of elasticity is characterised by coefficient of determination at similar level as for timber with rectangular cross-section.
