  • Comparative Study of NZ Pine & Selected SE Asian Species
    (FRONT COVER) A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF NEW ZEALAND PINE AND SELECTED SOUTH EAST ASIAN SPECIES (INSIDE FRONT COVER) NEW ZEALAND PINE - A RENEWABLE RESOURCE NZ pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) was introduced to New Zealand (NZ) from the USA about 150 years ago and has gained a dominant position in the New Zealand forest industry - gradually replacing timber from natural forests and establishing a reputation in international trade. The current log production from New Zealand forests (1998) is 17 million m3, of which a very significant proportion (40%) is exported as wood products of some kind. Estimates of future production indicate that by the year 2015 the total forest harvest could be about 35 million m3. NZ pine is therefore likely to be a major source of wood for Asian wood manufacturers. This brochure has been produced to give prospective wood users an appreciation of the most important woodworking characteristics for high value uses. Sponsored by: Wood New Zealand Ltd. Funded by: New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade Written by: New Zealand Forest Research Institute Ltd. (Front page - First sheet)) NEW ZEALAND PINE - A VERSATILE TIMBER NZ pine (Pinus radiata D.Don) from New Zealand is one of the world’s most versatile softwoods - an ideal material for a wide range of commercial applications. Not only is the supply from sustainable plantations increasing, but the status of the lumber as a high quality resource has been endorsed by a recent comparison with six selected timber species from South East Asia. These species were chosen because they have similar end uses to NZ pine.

C, 1951 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. Price 75 cents Preface THOSE who want to be successful in any line of work or business must learn the tricks of the trade one way or another. For most occupations there is a wealth of published information that explains how the job can best be done without taking too many knocks in the hard school of experience. For logging, however, there has been no ade- quate source of information that could be understood and used by the man who actually does the work in the woods. This NORTHEASTERN LOGGERS' HANDBOOK brings to- gether what the young or inexperienced woodsman needs to know about the care and use of logging tools and about the best of the old and new devices and techniques for logging under the conditions existing in the northeastern part of the United States. Emphasis has been given to the matter of workers' safety because the accident rate in logging is much higher than it should be. Sections of the handbook have previously been circulated in a pre- liminary edition. Scores of suggestions have been made to the author by logging operators, equipment manufacturers, and professional forest- ers.

  • Specifying Brazilian Exotic Hardwood Flooring
    Specifying Brazilian Exotic Hardwood Flooring 1 Brazilian Hardwood Selection, Durability and Aesthetics Presented by: Indusparquet USA 12800 NW South River Drive Medley, FL 33178 USA Description: Brazilian hardwood is unique in the world. The forests of Brazil are home to a broad and exclusive array of species that deliver the hardest and most breathtaking wood products. This course discusses the benefits of using Brazilian hardwood, including the durability, the aesthetic appeal, the selection, and the rigorous sustainability processes followed by manufacturers in this region of the world. 2 Learning Objectives At the end of this course, participants will be able to: ● Describe the size of Brazilian rainforests and list several reasons (hypotheses) for its biodiversity. ● Name the governing body in Brazil for forestry regulations and three international certifications that Brazilian hardwood products have. ● Identify eight hardwood species unique to Brazil. ● Describe the hardness, density and strength ratings of Brazilian hardwood compared to North America (domestic) species. ● Define four unique aesthetic characteristics of Brazilian hardwood. 3 Brazil’s Forests Overview and Forestry Management 4 Brazil’s Forests: the most biodiverse in the world Brazil possesses approximately 5.2 million km2 of forest land (60% of its territory); of this total, 98.7% consists of natural forest formation and 1.3% of planted forests. To provide some reference, the entire United States land mass is 9.6 million km2. According to recent reports, the Amazon is home to an estimated 390 billion trees and 16,000 diverse tree species. The World Wildlife Fund reports that there are at least 40,000 plant species in this region, a fraction of the 1 million species of life - small and large - thought to exist here - perhaps 30% of all life on the planet.

There is still, however, a significant lack of knowledge regarding the physical and mechanical properties of the lumber from such plantation resources as they are mainly being managed to produce woodchips. In this study, the physical and mechanical properties of lumber from a 16-year-old pulpwood Eucalyptus nitens H.Deane & Maiden resource from the northeast of Tasmania, Australia was evaluated. The tests were conducted on 318 small wood samples obtained from different logs harvested from the study site. The tested mechanical properties included bending modulus of elasticity (10,377.7 MPa) and modulus of rupture (53 MPa), shear strength parallel (5.5 MPa) and perpendicular to the grain (8.5 MPa), compressive strength parallel (42.8 MPa) and perpendicular to the grain (4.1 MPa), tensile strength perpendicular to the grain (3.4 MPa), impact bending (23.6 J/cm2), cleavage (1.6 kN) and Janka hardness (23.2 MPa).

  • Janka Hardness
    Your Mileage May Vary (Gary Guenther) Tips Hints Ideas Clues Janka hardness The Janka hardness is a measure of the hardness of wood. It is a measure of the resistance of a sample of wood to denting and wear. It measures the force required to embed an 11.28 mm (.444 in) diameter steel ball (with an area of 100 mm2) into wood to half the ball's diameter. This method leaves an indentation. The larger the number, the harder the wood. This number is useful in directly determining how well a wood will withstand dents, dings, and wear—as well as indirectly predicting the difficulty in nailing, screwing, sanding, or sawing a given wood species. A common use of Janka hardness ratings is to determine whether a species is suitable for use as flooring. The results are stated in various ways, which can lead to confusion, especially when the name of the actual units employed is often not attached. In the United States, the measurement is in pounds-force (lbf). In Sweden it is in kilograms-force (kgf), and in Australia, either in Newtons (N) or kilonewtons (kN). Sometimes the results are treated as units, for example "660 Janka". This number is given for wood that has been air dried to a 12% moisture content, unless otherwise noted. The hardness of wood varies with the direction of the wood grain. Testing on the surface of a plank perpendicular to the grain is said to be of "side hardness". Testing the cut surface of a stump is called a test of "end hardness".

  • OCHSENKOPF Catalog Tools
    18 19 A FORCE OF NATURE SINCE 1781. www.ochsenkopf.com MYTH GERMANY’S OLDEST AXE FORGE OCHSENKOPF stands for perfection and safety in forestry and carpentry tools. Since the Fahlefeld Bros. established the firm in 1781, the best steel with the best cut has been forged to a maximum quality in the Remscheid factory. An OCHSENKOPF axe stands for top-grade craftsmanship. It is still the pride of the traditional tool industry in “Bergisches Land”. A brand like a myth. Axe-making has been developed over time into a highly modern industrial undertaking. Quality and service have top priority. OCHSENKOPF tools are preferably manufactured of C60 steel. One of its features is its incredible toughness, which guarantees long tool life. Only high-quality wood is used in tool shaft production. Hickory is a high-grade and extremely break-proof wood. Instead of being sharpened to a knife edge, OCHSENKOPF tools are honed to a cambered edge, which results in longer edge life. So much more could be said about the brand considered by professionals to be the be-all and end-all. But basically you have to experience OCHSENKOPF. When working with wood. In the dark, deep forest. 3 FORGING COMPETENCE MANUFACTURE OF AN AXE Out of the forge and into the forest The forged blanks are sawn off from rolled Permanent marking by means of a stamp bearing the C60 tempering steel. manufacturer’s symbol.

Wood Articles About the Project Contact by Eric Meier Interested in getting Perhaps you’ve seen a type of lumber for sale known as “Soft Maple,” and were wondering: what’s the Wood Database in the difference between between this Soft Maple and Hard Maple? Just how soft is it? Why does it print? cost about half as much as Hard Maple? How can I tell the two apart? Be notified when the Well, here are the answers: Wood Databook becomes available. What’s the Difference? Email: Hardness of Maples Compared KEEP ME POSTED! Telling the Two Types of Maples Apart FYI: I receive a commission on sales generated through links to eBay and Amazon. First of all, the term “Soft Maple” does not refer to any specific species of maple, but rather, it’s a broad term which includes several different species of maple. The term “Soft Maple” is merely used to differentiate these species from Hard Maple. Hard Maple, on the other hand, typically refers to one specific type of maple species: Acer saccharum. Hard Maple is also known as Rock Maple or Sugar Maple, (this is the same tree which is tapped to get maple syrup). Besides this one species of maple, the only other species that is Periodic Table of Wood sometimes considered in the grouping of Hard Maple in the United States is Black Maple (Acer (35" x 23" Poster) nigrum).
