About the Wood Protection Association (WPA) The WPA is a not for profit technical and advisory organisation interested in the development and promotion of wood protection technology to support the use of wood as a cost effective, sustainable and low environmental impact construction material. The WPA acts as a technical advisor to British and European Standards setters on wood preservation, modified wood and the fire protection of wood. On the Regulations governing wood protection, the WPA enjoys lead body status with agencies like the Health & Safety Executive, Environment Agency, Scottish Environmental Protection Agency, the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs and the Highways Agency. The roots of the WPA go back to the 1930’s with the formation of the British Wood Preserving Association which became the British Wood Preserving & Damp-proofing Association in 1989 and subsequently the WPA in 2006. As designers look increasingly to wood as a low carbon construction material the WPA is committed to providing guidance on the best ways to ensure wood is fit for the purpose intended.

Underlined links in this manual are designed to speed navigation and simplify access to the key information relevant to their particular interests. Specifiers The manual provides a user-friendly system of specifications on the type and level of treatment most appropriate for the desired life of timber commodities in UK service conditions. The WPA Commodity (‘C code’) Specification system covers many of the common uses for timber species whose natural durability is insufficient to deliver an adequate service life. Model specifications are presented that provide a simple and reliable way of specifying treatment without the need for detailed knowledge of the underlying Highways fencing principles. National Highways Sector Scheme for pre-treated fencing (Sector Scheme 4) Full details are also available to enable specifiers who prefer to either include a detailed requires that motorways and trunk road specification or simply wish to be assured that the model specifications are sufficient to fencing is treated to a 30 year service life cover all aspects of wood choice, preparation for treatment, treatment itself and post- specification. treatment handling.

Desired service life: 30 years. Information is also provided on quality assurance procedures that underpin confidence in Photo courtesy: Calders & Grandidge the performance of treated material. Treatment plant managers and operators The manual includes detailed information on preparing timber for treatment and the treatment to be achieved to conform to specifications received. While in many cases preservative suppliers will assist treatment companies with guidance on processes to achieve combinations of penetration and retention of preservative products, plant operators can also use the tables and techniques described to assess the conformity of their procedures with the requirements of preservative treatment specifications. Sections are also included on handling and storing treated timber, quality assurance and analytical procedures. Users of treated timber The manual provides information on characteristics of treated timber and guidance on the use, safety and disposal of treated timber. The relevant sections should be consulted by users to ensure that the full benefits of additional durability conferred by treatment can be obtained while conforming to safety, health and environmental protection rules. © Wood Protection Association April 2012 3 Publication ref: WPA/WPSM Quick click to Commodity Specifications Introduction The WPA Commodity (‘C’) Specifications provide a simple route to accurate specification based on the latest British Standard BS 8417:2011. Treatment is tailored to the risk faced by timber in five Use Classes: 1: Interior dry; 2: Interior – risk of wetting; 3: Exposed to weather, above ground; 4: In ground or water contact; 5: In sea water. The Commodity Specifications allocate timber commodities to appropriate Use Classes and identify suitable preservative treatments. Simple specifications based on the Commodity Specifications mean that no further detail is needed to ensure that a specification is comprehensive and calls up all the relevant detail on suitable timber species, preservatives and quality assurance. Example model specifications are given on page 18.

Objectives and Practice of Industrial Wood Treated wood in action Preservation The fundamental objective of the pre-treatment of wood with preservatives is to ensure that, even when the wood is inherently vulnerable to biological deterioration, it remains sound throughout the design life of the structure of which it forms a part. Achieving this objective enables designers and specifiers to make maximum use of wood - the most environmentally acceptable construction material available. It is important to understand, however, that preservation is not a substitute for good design and appropriate maintenance programmes over the life of a structure, rather it is one component of a holistic approach to design, construction and maintenance. It is also an objective of pre-treatment to achieve the desired improvement in wood Roofing timbers durability with the minimum of environmental impact. It is a major advantage of pre- BSEN335:1 Use Class: 1 (dry) or treatment (which may often be precautionary in nature) that it is carried out in controlled Use Class 2 (where there is a risk of impregnation or application equipment which: wetting or condensation) a) gives minimum potential for exposure of either workers or the environment, to wood WPA commodity code specification: C8 preservative chemicals, and b) can impart greater durability than is possible with uncontrolled superficial processes, Photo courtesy: Lonza Wood Protection such as brushing and spraying. 2.

  • Potential of Cross Laminated Timber in Residential Design
    POTENTIAL OF CROSS LAMINATED TIMBER IN SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION by Brad Burback A thesis submitted to the Faculty and the Board of Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Civil and Environmental Engineering). Golden, Colorado Date____________________ Signed: ________________________ Brad Burback Signed: ________________________ Dr. Shiling Pei Thesis Advisor Golden, Colorado Date__________________ Signed: ________________________ Dr. John McCray Department Head of Civil and Environmental Engineering ii ABSTRACT Cross laminated timber (CLT) is a panelized engineered wood product that is gaining popularity in the United States as a structural material for massive timber buildings. CLT is shown to be cost competitive to steel and concrete in large building construction projects, but is seen as uncompetitive for smaller scale projects, especially light frame wood (LFW) residential construction. The purpose of this study is to provide a detailed comparison of the cost to construct a CLT home versus a LFW home to quantify the cost difference between both options in the single family home (SFH) market. Based on a realistic floor plan, three different designs were compared based on cost and construction timeline to determine the realistic cost differences between SFH constructions using LFW or CLT. The final results show that the CLT option results in a 21% increase in total construction cost from the LFW option. While it is difficult to justify this

However, the use of biomass as a fuel in the gasification process offers a carbon neutral fuel that will alleviate the continuing use of fossil fuels sources. This study was done to evaluate the possible applications of syngas originating from biomass gasification, as a follow up to the earlier biomass gasification research of the HighBio project. The syngas from the gasification process is generally produced in a gasifier. An overview of the different type of gasifiers for biomass gasification that include updraft, downdraft, crossdraft, entrained-flow and plasma gasifiers was presented. The syngas can be utilized in the generation of power, heat, fuels and chemicals. A detailed overview of the promising applications of the syngas in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, hydrogen production, ammonia synthesis, hydroformylation of olefins, and syngas fermentation was also given. However, for these applications, a high degree of treatment and conditioning of the syngas is required.

    HARDWOOD-DISTILLATION INDUSTRY No. 738 Revised February 1956 41. /0111111 110 111111111111111111 t I 1, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE FOREST PRODUCTS LABORATORY FOREST SERVICE MADISON 5, WISCONSIN. In Cooperation with the University of Wisconsin 1 HARDWOOD-DISTILLATION INDUSTRY— By EDWARD BEGLINGER, Chemical Engineer 2 Forest Products Laboratory, — Forest Service U. S. Department of Agriculture The major portion of wood distillation products in the United States is obtained from forest and mill residues, chiefly beech, birch, maple, oak, and ash. Marketing of the natural byproducts recovered has been concerned traditionally with outlets for acetic acid, methanol, and charcoal. Large and lower cost production of acetic acid and methanol from other sources has severely curtailed markets formerly available to the distillation in- dustry, and has in turn created operational conditions generally unfavor- able to many of the smaller and more marginal plants. Increased demand for charcoal, which is recovered in the largest amount as a plant product, now provides a compensating factor for more favorable plant operation. The present hardwood-distillation industry includes six byproduct-recovery plants. With the exception of one smaller plant manufacturing primarily a specialty product, all have modern facilities for direct byproduct re- covery. Changing economic conditions during the past 25 years, including such factors as progressively increasing raw material, equipment, and labor costs, and lack of adequate markets for methanol and acetic acid, have caused the number of plants to be reduced from about 50 in the mid- thirties to the 6 now operating. In addition to this group, a few oven plants formerly practicing full recovery have retained the carbonizing equipment and produce only charcoal.
