Book excerpt: Several relationships between tensile strength and some lumber characteristics that can be measured nondestructively are evaluated. From 72 to 83 percent of the variation in tensile strength of several hundred southern pine 2- by 4- and 2- by 8-inch specimens was accounted for by various linear combinations of strength ratio of knots, stiffness, slope of grain, and specific gravity. Strength ratio of knots and stiffness were the most significant variables. Evaluated in conjunction with other variables, stiffness measured over a 4-foot span improved the coefficient of determination of 2 by 4's by about 0.05 compared to stiffness measured over a 15-foot span; three methods to determine strength ratio of knots gave coefficients of determination that differed by a maximum of 0.08. A method for estimating lower 5 percent exclusion values for tensile strength is also presented. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To satisfy the increasing demand for forest products, much of the future timber supply will be from improved trees grown on managed plantations. This fast-grown resource will tend to be harvested in short age rotations and will contain higher proportions of juvenile wood than that of current harvests. In anticipation of this resource, definitive information is needed on the influence of juvenile wood on lumber properties so that grading rules and the associated allowable design stresses can be modified as needed. This document reports the results of an extensive review of the literature on juvenile wood in southern pines. This report defines and discusses the extent, occurrence, and characteristics of juvenile wood. It reviews the effects that environment and silviculture have on the amount of juvenile wood produced. Finally, the impacts that juvenile wood has on mechanical properties were quantified. The results of this quantification are significant to all producers of fast-grown plantations. Research has clearly shown that juvenile wood will have a detrimental impact on allowable design stresses for visually graded lumber. It is critical that methods are developed to more carefully manage fast-grown plantation wood for its most efficient use. This review should serve as an overall collection of knowledge pertaining to juvenile wood research in southern pines and should help in the decision-making efforts to improve seedling selection techniques and silvicultural practices to maximize the potential for fast-grown plantations of southern pines.
