The wood must be plasticized. Although wood can be plasticized chemically or even by microwaves when in a green state, the most convenient way to plasticize wood is with steam. Wood cells are held together by a naturally occurring substance in the wood called lignin. Imagine the wood fi bers to be a bundle of rods with the space between them fi lled with lignin. The strength of this lignin bond between the rods can be decreased by subjecting For example, a straight piece of wood 1" thick and 18" the wood to steam.

  • UK OAK DOORS How to Curve Or Bend Wood
    UK OAK DOORS How to Curve or Bend Wood How to curve or bend wood 1 If you want to soften or plasticize wood, there are two methods that you can use. Steaming is a popular method for bending wood for making chair parts or staircase banisters, and is also sometimes used to make canoes, baskets, and musical instruments. Kerfing, on the other hand involves making a series of cuts into the wood to make the wood easier to bend. Kerfing weakens the wood but is often used for decorative purposes. How to Steam Wood The best wood to work with, when it comes to steaming, is wood that already has a fairly good moisture content. Choose a hardwood over a soft wood. If the wood is not already moist, then you should pre-soak it. Woods that are damp cope better with heat transfer. Wood is steamed in a steam box, which is connected to a steam generator using a hose. A steam box can be made from either wood or PVC, and must be big enough to accommodate the entire piece of wood to be steamed. Large boxes have racks inside them to support the wood. The box is almost completely airtight, but there must be a couple of small holes to allow some of the steam to escape. It is possible to make a DIY steam generator using a simple kettle, but there are specialist products that can be purchased for the purpose as well. If you are making a DIY steam generator, make sure that the hose fits over the end of the kettle tightly, and is properly secured.

Energy Efficiency • “A common misconception is that replacing windows alone will result in major energy savings... Although it varies from building to building, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has documented that air loss attributable to windows in most buildings is only about 10% of the total air loss. Studies have shown that window replacement does not pay for itself in energy savings in a reasonable length of time. Moreover, there are ways to improve the performance of historic windows that do not require their replacement.

  • A Study on Bentwood Furniture Design-Focus on Steam Bending
    KFS Journal, Vol. 20(3), 2009: 222-231 A Study on Bentwood Furniture Design - Focus on Steam Bending Technique – Kim, Young-Joo1 ABSTRACT At researching the history of furniture design, furniture based on the bentwood technique was often seen. There are different bending ways of wood. Among others the steam bending technique had been used since long time, but it’s detailed method has been much less studied in Korea yet. The aim of the present study was to investigate the theoretical approach and making ways & process of the steam bending technique, and furthermore to utilize it for the works of the students majoring furniture design. This intends that the steam bending technique will be widely distributed by doing a mock up and it will be diversely used for development of more different furniture designs. Key words: Steam, Bending, Steam Box, Lamination, Bent wood Furniture. 1. INTRODUCTION 1-1 Purpose The beginning of the bent wood technique goes back to the 18th century. It was derived from the technique of production for vessel and wheel of carriage. The start of the applied bent wood technique to the furniture was Windsor Chair in the early 1730s. By applying and using the bent wood to furniture the efficiency and structure of wood can be improved and it positively influences to economical aspect of wood. Bent wood technique contributes to beautiful expression of the curved wood and different design sills thanks to natural carving methods. The technique of bent wood are classified in Milling Solid Stock (direct woodcarving way), Plate Bending, Kerf Bending, Lamination Bending, Steam Bending etc.

  • A Study on the Technique and Process of Bending Wood1
    KFS Journal, Vol. 21(6), 2010: 459-468 A Study on the Technique and Process of Bending Wood1 Hyung-Goo Kang2 ABSTRACT Materials are such an important factor in designing furniture. Wood is the biggest part of furniture materials. While wood is soft, eco-friendly and natural material, it is variable because it is characterized by severe expansion and contraction. Thus, if the changeable characteristic of wood is not considered in furniture design, the good design of furniture cannot be produced. As one of the skills dealing with woods, bending is such a useful way for making various forms of furniture. While it has been used in furniture-making for a long time, wood processing techniques like steaming bending, bending with ammonia and high frequency bending has been advanced. As wood is a viscoelastic material and has some plasticity, beautiful curves can be created when force is applied. Therefore this paper studies the types of bending methods for furniture and each characteristic of them. Furthermore, this study classifies wood process according to suitability for mass production or small-scale production and researches the proper wood process by the forms and the way of furniture production. Also this study aims to help furniture designers and cabinet makers with wood bending.
