Application of wood in structural engineering
Wood is a traditional building material, which has been widely used in both ancient and modern buildings. In structure, wood is mainly used for framing and roofing, such as beams, columns, citrons, watchplates, brackets, etc. Many buildings in our country are wooden structures, they have a high level of architectural technology and art, and have a
Wood has good mechanical properties, but wood is an organic anisotropic material, the mechanical properties of the direction of the grain and the direction of the transverse grain are very different. The longitudinal tensile and compressive strength of wood is higher, but the transverse tensile and compressive strength is lower. Wood strength also
It is an important index of wood properties, according to which the actual weight of wood is estimated, and the physical and mechanical properties of wood such as the process properties of wood and the dry shrinkage, expansion, hardness and strength of wood are inferred. Wood density, basic density and dry density are the most commonly used.
