DURABILITY ASSESSMENTS OF WOOD-FRAME CONSTRUCTION USING THE CONCEPT OF DAMAGE-FUNCTIONS Durability assessments of wood-frame construction
Review of the state-of-the-art on fungal damage of wood materials showed that a combination of period of cumulative time when moisture and thermal regimes are above specified minimum is needed for fungal activities to cause biological decay in wood. The long-term performance of a typical wall assembly was evaluated using an existing computer model of heat, moisture, and air transfer in conjunct...
متن کاملProperties of Wood and Structural Wood Products
Wood differs from other construction materials because it is produced in a living tree. As a result, wood possesses material properties that may be significantly different from other materials normally encountered in structural design. Although it is not necessary to have an in-depth knowl edge of wood anatomy and properties, it is necessary for the engineer to have a general understanding of ...
متن کاملLife-cycle Analysis of Wood Products: Cradle-to-gate Lci of Residential Wood Building Materials
This study compares the cradle-to-gate total energy and major emissions for the extraction of raw materials, production, and transportation of the common wood building materials from the CORRIM 2004 reports. A life-cycle inventory produced the raw materials, including fuel resources and emission to air, water, and land for glued-laminated timbers, kiln-dried and green softwood lumber, laminated...
متن کاملNanotechnology in Wood-based Composite Panels
Wood is a naturally renewable material with both continuous and isolated pore systems. Wood-composite panels have the privilege of offering a homogeneous structure to be used as constructional and structural materials. However, its nature makes it susceptible to biological wood-deteriorating agents, water absorption and thickness swelling, fire, etc. Using nano-materials are very easy in the wo...
