  • Designing and Establishing a Fine Hardwood Timber Plantations
    DESIGNING AND ESTABLISHING A FINE HARDWOOD TIMBER PLANTATION James R. McKenna and Lenny D. Farlee1 Abstract.—Today, new tools and lessons learned from established plantations of black walnut and other fine hardwoods can provide landowners with guidelines to design and establish successful plantations to produce quality timber for the future. From earlier plantations now maturing, we can recognize design features critical during establishment. Current production practices combined with improved tools, ongoing genetic improvement, and lessons learned from various spacing and species mixes make it possible to establish higher quality timber plantations today than previously possible. We summarize new tools for assessing the suitability of soils to grow good walnut and present plantation design strategies to enhance the quality of walnut mixed with other hardwoods to minimize risk if walnut does not grow well. We also include design details that can enhance the aesthetic quality of the land and expand wildlife habitat. As world population increases and available forest new growers will find the background information, lands diminish, timber plantations hold the promise planning considerations, and descriptions of to produce a greater quantity of wood per acre than techniques needed to establish a successful plantation. natural forests (Sedjo 1999, Sedjo and Botkin 1997).

  • Hardwood Lumber and Veneer Series: Black Waknut
    PURDUE EXTENSION Hardwood Lumber and Veneer Series Black Walnut FNR-278-W Daniel L. Cassens, Professor and Extension Wood Products Specialist Department of Forestry and Natural Resources, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 American Black Walnut (Juglans nigra L.) is probably the most famous and unique species of all our hardwoods. Large trees, defect free and exceptionally well-formed, were once common. Because of its rich, brown, lustrous heartwood with a grain pattern and intermediate pore size falling somewhere between the grainy hardwoods, such as oak and the uniform textured woods such as maple and yellow-poplar, the wood became prized for furniture, paneling, military and sporting gun stocks, novelties, and many other items. The wood was abundant and had a natural resistance to decay and insects. Therefore, it was also commonly used for construction purposes, such as barn timbers. Even as late as the 1960s the author witnessed the sale and use of walnut 1 x 12s for hayrack boards because it would not rot. By the 1970s, the wood became relatively expensive, forcing the furniture and cabinet industry to promote other species. By the mid-1990s, the trend toward light colored hardwoods also lessened walnut’s popularity. Today, it is preferred in office furniture, architectural millwork, flooring, high-end gun stocks, specialty, and custom items. Some suppliers Chip Morrison feel that it is becoming somewhat more popular Walnut trees again. However, walnut lumber constitutes less than two percent of all hardwood lumber produced. This species prefers deep, rich, moist soils of Black walnut ranges from the east coast to the alluvial origin.

The lifespan of solid hardwood flooring is fifty years plus, far above the life span of other interior floor finishes. Specify FSC Certified solid hardwood flooring from North American sources. Maple is very durable, better than oak which is not as impact resistant; oak strip flooring, however, is very acceptable. Under certain situations where the building’s conditioning varies greatly, maple is known to shrink and leave gaps between boards. High and medium grades are to be specified over lower grades of #2 common or 3rd grade which tend to have open knots and shorter lengths. High and medium grades are to be selected based on desired style, color variation and cost effectiveness. Engineered wood flooring which is assembled from thin layers of hardwood and a plywood backing for stability should be limited to conditions where moisture is of particular concern. The top layer must be a minimum ¼” thick, solid hardwood. Parquet flooring is not acceptable because it is too vulnerable to damage. Laminate, veneer and bamboo flooring are not acceptable because they cannot be re-sanded and have a limited life span.

    Department of Forest Service Hardwoods: A Rev Southern Forest Experiment Station New Orleans, Louisiana General Technical Report SO-71 Terry Sellers, Jr., James R. McSween, and William T. Nearn Over a period of years, increasing demand for softwoods in the Eastern United States has led to an increase in the growth of hardwoods on cut-over softwood sites. tinfortunately these hardwood trees are often of a size and shape unsuitable for the production of high-grade lumber and veneer. They do. however. represent a viable. economic source of raw material for plywood, fiberboard, particleboard. and oriented strandboard lor flakeboards), all products that require the successful use of adhesives in their manufacture. The current status of gluing eastern hardwoods is reviewed in this report, with emphasis on hardwoods growing on southern pine sites. The subjects covered include adhesives, wood and wood-surface properties and their interactions with the adhesive, and the quality of the bonds produced when these hardwoods are used in the manufacture of end joints, laminates, plywood, and other composite panels. A variety of adhesives are available that equal or exceed the strength of the hardwoods being bonded. The choice of a particular adhesive is dictated in large measure by the adhesive price and the end-use criteria for the finished product. In discussing the gluing of eastern hardwoods, the approach taken is that the fundamentals that determine the quality of an adhesive bond should remain the same whether the substrate is a softwood or a low-, medium-, or high-density hardwood. To illustrate the differences encountered in gluing the various hardwood species and the best approach for dealing with them in terms of bonding fundamentals, in this report we will concex~trateon: The quality and character of the surface as aflected by wood structure.

  • Improving Strand Quality of Upland Oaks for Use in Oriented Strand Board
    IMPROVING STRAND QUALITY OF UPLAND OAKS FOR USE IN ORIENTED STRAND BOARD David B. DeVallance, Jody D. Gray, and Shawn T. Grushecky1 Abstract.—Past research estimates that more than 1 million tons of oak logging residues go unused in West Virginia each year. Much research has been done investigating potential products and markets for this underutilized resource. West Virginia is home to an oriented strand board (OSB) producer that consumes large volumes of small diameter, low quality round wood. However, the use of oak species is limited because of their undesirable physical properties. Much of this rejection is due to the poor strandability of oak and the production of signifi cant volumes of fi nes during the stranding process. New stranding technology for improving the quality of oak strands produced for the OSB manufacturing process was investigated. Th e process of making OSB strands was examined to see if changes could be made to improve the quality of oak strands. Changes in cutting speed, knife angle, pocket angle, and rotations per minute improved the strand geometry and reduced the percentage of fi nes produced during the oak stranding process. INTRODUCTION More than 10 tons of logging residues per acre are left in the woods annually after harvest in southern West Virginia (Grushecky et al. 2006). An estimated 50 percent of that residue is low quality oak. If this trend is extrapolated to the whole state, approximately 1,125,000 tons of low quality oak is available each year in West Virginia. Th is residue represents a potential resource, but at present, no lasting market has developed for its use.

    PURDUE EXTENSION Hardwood Lumber and Veneer Series Hard or Sugar Maple FNR-287-W Daniel L. Cassens, Professor and Extension Wood Products Specialist Department of Forestry and Natural Resources, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 Hard or sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) is one of our hardest, smoothest, most beautiful and valuable species. Its hardness and ability to take a high polish and smooth finish and the white color of the sapwood has resulted in many specialty uses. The species is also appreciated for the rich and flavor intense syrup and candy that is made from the sap in the early spring. However, due to color issues, white maple is probably one of the most difficult types of lumber that can be produced. There is also a black maple (Acer nigrum Michx.f.) species, but it is seldom differentiated in the log and lumber business. Hard maple ranges from New Brunswick across southern Quebec and Ontario to Minnesota and south to Missouri and Tennessee and back up the Appalachian Mountains and through the entire Northeast. Hard maple is generally thought of as a northern and northeastern species. The species makes its best development on moist, rich, well-drained soil, but it will persist on poor sites. In the north, it is often associated with beech, birch, red spruce, and eastern white pine. In the central states, it is often found with basswood, white Chip Morrison oak, yellow-poplar, hickory, and oaks. Sugar maple is Dan Cassens and sugar maple tree very shade tolerant and exists in the understory.

  • AP-42, CH 10.5: Plywood Manufacturing
    10.5 Plywood Manufacturing 10.5.1 General Plywood is a building material consisting of veneers (thin wood layers or plies) bonded with an adhesive. There are two types of plywood: softwood plywood and hardwood plywood. Softwoods generally correspond to coniferous species. The most commonly used softwoods for manufacturing plywood are firs and pines. Hardwoods generally correspond to deciduous species. For hardwood plywood, commonly used wood species include oak, poplar, maple, cherry, and larch. Softwood plywood is manufactured by gluing several layers of dry softwood veneers together with an adhesive. Softwood plywood is used for wall siding, sheathing, roof decking, concrete formboards, floors, and containers. Softwood plywood is classified under Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code 2436, and North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code 321212 for “Softwood Plywood and Veneer”. Hardwood plywood is made of hardwood veneers bonded with an adhesive. The outer layers (face and back) surround a core which is usually lumber, veneer, particleboard, or medium density fiberboard. Hardwood plywood may be pressed into panels or plywood components (e.g., curved hardwood plywood, seat backs, chair arms, etc.). Hardwood plywood is used for interior applications such as furniture, cabinets, architectural millwork, paneling, flooring, store fixtures, and doors. Hardwood plywood is classified under SIC code 2435 and NAICS code 321211, for “Hardwood Plywood and Veneer”. Softwood plywood plants typically produce softwood veneers and softwood plywood on the same plant site. However, most hardwood plywood and veneer plants either produce hardwood plywood or hardwood veneer. Hardwood veneer plants cut and dry hardwood veneers. Hardwood plywood plants typically purchase hardwood veneers and press the veneers onto a purchased core material.

  • Hardwood Lumber and Veneer Series: Red
    PURDUE EXTENSION Hardwood Lumber and Veneer Series Red Oak FNR-288-W Daniel L. Cassens, Professor and Extension Wood Products Specialist Department of Forestry and Natural Resources, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 “Red oak” is a term used in the lumber trade that refers to a category of lumber. This lumber category may contain as many as 17 different species of trees (See Table 1). It constitutes about one-third of all the hardwood lumber produced. Northern red oak is the most preferred species. It ranges throughout the eastern United States and Canada, except the southern coastal planes. It does well on moist but well-drained soils, and it is associated with numerous other species. The largest tree reported is nearly 11 feet in diameter at 4½ feet above the ground. Black oak is the second most common species in the region. Its range is similar to that of northern red oak, but it does not extend as far north. Black oak grows best on the same site as northern red oak. Black oak is often found on poorer sites; and in these cases, the lumber quality is less than that of northern red oak. Black oak, shumond oak, southern red oak, and cherrybark oak are also important lumber species. Wood Color and Texture Red oak wood color can vary from a very light pink, which is currently preferred, to a blood red color. Many manufacturers who process red oak lumber into parts will sort it for color, particularly if glued-up panels are being produced. Chip Morrison Red oak lumber has a very characteristic showy Red oak tree coarse grain pattern.
