摘要:The authors sought to establish a method to determine characteristic strength of structural wood materials by using the nonparametric method, to provide a scientific basis for safety design and reasonable application in wood building structures. Characteristic strength was a key mechanical property index for structural wood materials, which was determined by confidence level requirements. Random samples generated by a normal distribution were used to investigate relationships among confidence level and coefficient of variation of sample’s strength, specimen numbers in sampling, as well as statistical order for characteristic strength. Minimum number of specimens at different confidence levels and statistical order were obtained. A calculation formula for the statistical order was then developed.

摘要:The development, technical progress and applications for continuous presses for wood-based panel production were reviewed and summarized. New application potentials such as plywood production,3-layer wood-plastic composite production and polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA) production for continuous presses were presented.
摘要:Scrimber samples with different density were made of heartwood and sapwood of Radiata pine(Pinus radiata) separately and performances of the scrimber were tested. The results showed that water resistance and mechanical properties of the scrimber were improved with increased density whereas heartwood and sapwood had little influence on properties. The tests showed that the properties of the scrimber samples could meet the requirements of the Chinese Standard GB/T 20241-2006.

摘要:In order to develop functional aerogel materials, wood pulp fiber(WPF)/cellulose nanocrystals(CNC) crosslinked aerogels were prepared by using 1, 2, 3, 4-butanetetracarboxylic acid(BTCA) as the crosslinking material. The authors then investigated the degree of cross-linking due to morphology,specific surface area, pore structure, crystallization and chemical structure of the aerogels. The results showed that the aerogels had a three-dimensional network structure formed by intertwined WPF and CNC,and the WPF was surrounded by nanofibers formed by the CNC. BTCA crosslinking had a significant effect on the structure and properties of the aerogels. As the crosslinking material increased, crystallinity,specific surface area and pore volume of the aerogels decreased.
摘要:With wheat straw and wood chips as raw materials, three-layer particleboard was made with Mg-based inorganic adhesive. Effects of wheat straw/wood ratio, board density, hot-pressing time and temperature on physical and mechanical properties of the board samples were studied. Results showed that modulus of rupture(MOR), modulus of elasticity(MOE) and thickness swelling(TS) gradually decreased and internal bond strength(IB) gradually increased with increasing the wheat straw in the wheat straw/wood ratio. As board density increased and hot-pressing time extended, MOR, MOE and IB gradually increased while TS decreased. As hot-pressing temperature raised, MOR, MOE and IB first gradually increased and then decreased, TS was in contrast. The optimal preparation parameters were:wheat straw-wood mass ratio of 5 : 5, board density of 1.2 g/cm3, hot-pressing time of 30 min and hot-pressing temperature of 100 ℃.
摘要:Parallel-chord wood trusses are widely used in floor plane systems of light timber frame structures. In practice, components of parallel-chord wood trusses could be arranged in two ways. One is lumber-on-edge truss and another is lumber-on-flat truss. In this study, deflection of top and bottom nodes of these two kinds of parallel-chord wood trusses were measured through static load tests, bearing capacity,rigidity and failure modes of the nodes were analyzed. The results showed that lumber-on-edge trusses provided a better ultimate bearing capacity and higher rigidity with components’ failure as the main failure mode. When it turned to lumber-on-flat trusses, nodes failure was the main failure mode. Chord extension in wood trusses has significant influence on its bearing capacity. Therefore, butt joints shall be strengthened since the safety performance requirement is normally high.

摘要:According to reliability theory, probability distribution must be first understood to determine shear strength design values of metal-plate-connected joints. The authors conducted a shear strength test on five connecting angles of specimens composed of widely used domestic metal-plates and second grade SPF dimensional lumber from North America. The testing data were analyzed by distribution fitting methods combined with sum of squared residual analysis. The test results showed normal logarithmic shear strength distribution for the metal-plate-connected joints. Finally, using ratios of mean values and standard values, "K" were determined for reference for further analysis of reliability and determination of design values.

摘要:Aims to establish a industrial chain system framework for fully customized housing decoration in China, the authors analyzed the status of the industry. They proposed that the system should be composed of seven sub-systems including basics and comprehension, design, manufacturing, logistics,installation, acceptance check and maintenance. They also gave suggestions on drafting more new standards in urgent needs to improve the system.

摘要:Impregnated paper-overlaid boards were made with E0 grade blockboards as substrates, poplar veneers as buffer layers and A-grade impregnated papers as decorative surfaces. Formaldehyde emissions from the impregnated papers and the decorated board overlaid with the paper were tested, respectively. The results showed formaldehyde emissions from the impregnated paper-overlaid boards could be less than 0.5 mg/L only if the formaldehyde emissions from the papers were less than 0.7 mg/L.
摘要:In order to better make reconstituted decorative veneers, a traditionally used urea-formaldehyde resin(UF) was mixed with modified corn-starch emulsions and then reinforced with a polyvinyl acetate emulsion(PVAc), an aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol(PVA), an anionic polyacrylamide(APAM) as well as polymethylene polyphenyl isocyanate(PAPI). The results showed that the newly made veneers with the modified adhesive had better flexibility than the controls with less formaldehyde emission.
摘要:Superheated steam was used to dry masson pine(Pinus massoniana) lumber. Effects of drying temperature on color, moisture deviation in thickness direction and deresination were studied. The results showed that there was little effect on wood color and moisture deviation in thickness direction was less than 1% in superheated steam drying. The pine rosins were either driven to wood surfaces or consolidated inside. It was feasible to use superheated steam technology for both wood drying and deresination.
