FOREWORD 0.1 This Indian Standard ( First Revision ) was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution on 30 October 1981, after the draft finalized by the Wood Products Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council. 0.2 Wood wool building slabs consist essentially of wood wool chemically treated and bonded by pressing together with an inorganic cementing filler and adequately matured. Wood wool building slabs are being manu- factured in the country and such slabs are in actual use in a number of constructions. This standard lays down the essential requirements of wood wool building slabs for use in constructions and provides the necessary guidance for manufacture of wood wool building slabs in the country. 0.2.1 This standard was first published in 1969 and this is the first revision of the standard. In this revision modifications have been made in the provisions relating to sound absorption, weight stipulation, sizes permissible, etc. Since wood wool slabs of 25 mm thickness only are most commonly used for accoustical purposes, requirements for sound absorption coefficient are included for 25 mm thick slabs only; there being no data available with regard to sound absorption coefficient relevant to other thicknesses ( see 10.1). 0.3 In the formulation of this standard, due weightage has been given to international co-ordination among the standards and practices prevailing in different countries in addition to relating it to the practices in the field in this country. 0.4 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS : 2-1960*. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard. *Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised ) . 3 IS : 3308 - 1981 1. SCOPE 1.1 This standard lays down the requirements, such as dimensions, weight and strength for wood wool building slabs. 2. TERMINOLOGY 2.0 For the purpose of this standard, the definitions given in IS : 707-1976* shall apply. 3. TYPES 3.1 The wood-wool building slabs shall be of two types designated as given below: a) Tyfie 1 Light Weight Slabs-These slabs are intended primarily for non-load bearing partitions, ceilings, wall linings, permanent shuttering and roof insulation. b) Ty@e 2 Heavy Duty Slabs-These slabs are intended for load bearing situations and for use in roof construction. These are also suitable for purposes indicated in Type 1 slabs. 4. MATERIGL 4.1 General - The slabs shall consist essentially of wood wool and an inorganic cementing material mechanically pressed together and ade- quately matured. 4.2 Timber - Almost any species of timber which satisfies the require- ment of density and quality of wood wool slabs may be used for magnesium- oxy-chloride cement bonded wood wool slabs. 4.2.1 For manufacturing Portland cement slab, Fir ( Abies spp. other than Abies densa ) shall be used. Other species with the addition of suitable additives may be used provided the requirements are met with. 5. FORM AND TEXTURE 5.1 The slabs shall be of uniform thickness with rectangular parallel faces and shall have clean reasonably square edges and shall be of uniform texture. The deviation from rectangular shape shall be not more than 5 mm measured along the edge of the slab. *Glossary of terms applicable to timber technology and utilization ( second revision ). 4 IS : 3398 - 1981 6.

  • CHINA: FOREST PROFILE1 China Has a Great Variety of Forest Types
    CHINA MARKET PROFILE CHINA MARKET PROFILE CHINA: FOREST PROFILE1 China has a great variety of forest types. In the northern cold temperate zone, the forest is composed of coniferous trees, followed by a mixed forest of deciduous and broad-leaved trees in the temperate zone. The warm temperate zone is dominated by a deciduous broad-leaved forest, evergreen broad-leaved forest in the subtropical zone and finally rain forest and monsoon in the tropical zone. Yunnan and Chinese red pine as well as oak, larch and Chinese fir are some of the most common trees to be found in China. CHINA’S FOREST DISTRIBUTION Forest Cover 2000 Distribution of land cover/use % (1996) Forests are organized into three types. State Forests account for by far the greatest part, with 70 % of total ´000 ha Forest Other Wooded Land Other land timber reserves. There are also Collective Forest Farms China 163,480 17.5 3.7 79.6 and Co-operative and Industrial Forest Farms. A total of Asia 547,791 17.8 4.6 78.3 131 forest bureaus have been created, and engage in World 3,869,453 29.4 11.2 58.6 activities relating to industry, especially logging. To ensure the availability of forest resources, 4,256 State Forest Farms and 110,000 Collective Farms have been established across the country. China presently has around 14 percent forest cover, almost evenly divided between coniferous and broadleaved forests. The largest forests are in the northeast and inner Mongolian provinces; the ten southern provinces; and Sichuan and Yunnan provinces.

  • Board Materials from Wood Residues
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE • FOREST SERVICE • FOREST PRODUCTS LABORATORY • MADISON, WIS. U. S. D. A. FOREST SERVICE RESEARCH NOTE F PL -045 Rev. July 1971 1 BOARD MATERIALS FROM WOOD RESIDUES By WAYNE C. LEWIS, Engineer Forest Products Laboratory, Forest Service U.S. Department of Agriculture ---- About 9 billion square feet of various types of wood-base fiber and particle panel materials are manufactured each year in the United States. Wood sub­ stance in one form or another is the principal raw material for all hardboard and particleboard. About two-thirds of the insulating board produced also is wood based; the remainder is made from bagasse (waste from sugar cane) and waste paper. Use of these products has increased about 50 percent during the past 7 years so their potential for utilization of residues is most important. The total wood requirements for board manufacture based on plant capacity in 1970 are estimated at more than 16,500 tons (dry wood basis) per day. Total daily productive capacity in final board, including that from other agricultural fiber, is about 15,000 tons. Of this, at least one-half are residues from some other type of forest products manufacturing operation. Principal sources of residue raw material for board manufacture include the following: (1) Waste veneer, cores, and clippings from the manufacture of plywood. (2) Slabs, edgings, and trim from lumber production. (3) Green and dry planer-mill shavings from lumber production. (4) Logs of little-used species or logging residues. (5) Sawdust, shavings, and whole-wood scrap from millwork production. (6) Scrap from furniture manufacture.

  • TT-096, Wood Structural Panels and Phytosanitary Control
    Technical Topics TT-096 OCTOBER 2016 Wood Structural Panels and Phytosanitary Control The export and import of wood products creates the potential that unwanted organisms, such as insects, are also transported, thereby creating a risk of infestation. To reduce this risk, various national and international regulatory bodies develop phytosanitary control measures for the import/export of woody materials. The possibility of insect infestation from wood structural panels, such as structural plywood and oriented strand board (OSB), is greatly diminished by the manufacturing processes. The result of the various wood structural wood panel manufacturing processes destroys organisms that may be present in the wood before processing. This destruction is assured by a number of severe environments that the raw materials experience during the manufacturing process. These environments of typical manufacturing are briefly described below: • Prior to processing, logs are typically cured in hot water or high temperature steam chambers to facilitate the veneer cutting or strand generation process. • For veneer production, the logs are then inserted in a high speed lathe and veneers (from 1/10 to 3/16 inch thick) are cut. The strands used in OSB are cut by a series of high speed knives that slice off strands that are approxi- mately 0.025 inch thick. • Veneer is dried at temperatures between 325°F and 350°F. The veneer stays in the dryer for 6 to 15 minutes. Strands, on the other hand, are dried at temperatures of 600°F to 1200°F as it passes through a rotary or screen dryer. • The veneers are then assembled into plywood blanks and pressed at 150 to 210 psi at press temperatures of 325° to 375°F until the panel is elevated to a minimum of 220°F at the core of the panel.
