Tensile-Shear Strength of Glued Line of Laminated Veneer Lumber

Effects of Press Pressure on Glue Line Thickness and Properties of Laminated Veneer Lumber Glued with Melamine Urea Formaldehyde Adhesive

Laminated veneer lumbers (LVLs) were manufactured from half-round sliced I-214 hybrid poplar clone veneers with MUF adhesives using press pressures ranging from 2.5 to 15 kg cm -2 . The results showed that the press pressures affected the glue line thickness (GLT) and the physical and mechanical properties of the LVLs. Higher specific gravity (SG) and mechanical properties, but lower GLT were d...

Determination of Screw Withdrawal Strength of Heat- Treated and Reinforced Laminated Veneer Lumber

The withdrawal resistance of screws in heat-treated and reinforced laminated veneer lumber (RLVL) was determined in the radial, tangential, and transverse directions. For this reason, laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and RLVL with carbon fibers were produced from heattreated oak (Quercus petraea (Liebl.)) veneers using phenol formaldehyde as the adhesive. Wood samples were heat-treated at 140, 170...

The Effects of Some Factors on the Impact Bending Strength of Laminated Veneer Lumber

In this study, the impact bending strengths and specific impact bending strengths were determined for solid wood and laminated veneer lumber (LVL) produced from eucalyptus (Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden), poplar (Populus x euramericana I-214), and beech (Fagus orientalis L.) woods using urea formaldehyde (UF), melamine urea formaldehyde (MUF), and phenol formaldehyde (PF) adhesives. The ...

Summary STUDIES OF THE STRENGTH OF GLUED LAMINATED WOOD CONSTRUCTION

Analysis of the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Laminated Veneer Lumber

In this paper, four different nondestructive testing (NDT) methods and static bending tests were done on poplar (Populus ussuriensis Kom.) and birch (Betula platyphylla Suk.) Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL). The effects of compression ratio on the modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) of LVL with vertical load and parallel load were investigated. There were four compression rat...
