Additionally, growth stress and geometric growth characteristics will cause drying stress and deformation of wood as well. 2.3. Advances of the Wood Drying Stress Model The wood drying stress model is a mathematical method to describe the causes and development of drying stress. The study of the ...
Introduction With low embodied energy and carbon storage characteristics, wood has gained more and more attention in the green and sustainable building industry in recent years. However, wood normally has larger variabilities in mechanical properties compared to concrete or steel. Therefore, different ...
pMDI have the characteristics of fast curing, formaldehyde-free emission, small loading quantity, and good weather resistance; they are used primarily in the manufacture of OSB [2,9]. Formaldehyde has been categorized as a carcinogenic and toxic material, with acute oral toxicity (LD50) of 100 ...
Engineered timber products such as cross-laminated timber (CLT) and glue-laminated (glulam) offer potential solutions to value-adding this resource, but the bond performance of this feedstock and the extent to which current standards and guides address its common characteristics for bond performance ...
Both types have rather poor wetting characteristics in combination with plastics. The wrong combination of materials of a façade system may result in considerably shorter service life and it can significantly affect the bondability and adhesive properties. As a result, it is advisable to increase ...
