Check out a sample textbook solutionStudents have asked these similar questions
If a wood beam is designed for use at 2 months event only, should the designer increase or
decrease the allowable stress relative to the allowable stress used for normal applications?
How much increase or decrease?
please answer these two question
1.Explain the reason that flexural modulus of elasticity and compression test modulus of elasticity must be considered separately when both the flexural test and the parallel to grain compressive test caused normal stresses parallel to the grain of the wood.
2. Discuss the difference between isotropic and orthotropic materials for wood.
The grains of wood in the board make an angle of 20°
with the horizontal as shown. The board is subjected to
an axial load of P = 300 N. (Figure 1)
