Introduction
-
Can the SCT be applied and adapted to determine the compressive properties on veneer?
-
Can the required mechanical values: MOE, Poissons´s ratio and compressive strength be determined for the different directions (parallel and transversal)?
-
Are there differences between the properties of veneer and solid wood under compression mode or can the mechanical values of solid wood be used for calculations?
