COMPARISON FOR PHYSICO-MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FARM-GROWN EUCALYPTUS CAMALDULENSIS DEHN. WITH CONVENTIONAL TIMBERS
Abstract
This paper deals with physical and mechanical wood quality properties of farm-grown Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn. in comparison to conventional timbers i.e., Dalbergia sissoo Roxb., Acacia nilotica Del. and Cedrus deodara Roxb. Tests were conducted using standardized, defect-free test specimens as per corresponding mechanical property. The mean values of wood density, static bending-MOR, maximum compressive strength parallel to grain and perpendicular to grain, maximum tensile strength, impact bending and nail holding capacity of E. camaldulensis were recorded as 0.681 g cm-3
