Results showed that the dynamic and static MOE of bluestained wood were higher than those of non-bluestained wood. The significant differences in dynamic MOE and static MOE were found between bulestained and non-bluestained wood, of which, the difference in each of three dynamic MOE (Ep. the ultrasonic wave modulus of elasticity, Ems, the stress wave modulus of elasticity and El, the longitudinal wave modulus of elasticity) between bulestained and non-bluestained wood arrived at the 0.01 significance level, whereas that in the static MOE at the 0.05 significance level. The differences in MOE between bulestained and non-bluestained wood were induced by the variation between sapwood and heartwood and the different densities of bulestained and non-bluestained wood. The correlation between dynamic MOE and static MOE was statistically significant at the 0.01 significance level. Although the dynamic MOE values of Ep, Em, Er were significantly different, there exists a close relationship between them (arriving at the 0.01 correlation level). Comparative analysis among the three techniques indicated that the accurateness of FFT was higher than that of Pundit and Metriguard. Effect of tree knots on MOE was also investigated. Result showed that the dynamic and static MOE gradually decreased with the increase of knot number, indicating that knot number had significant effect on MOE value.展开更多

Hook.) was graded to four different classes as SS, No. 1, No.2 and No.3, according to national lumber grades authority (NLGA) for structure light framing and structure joists and planks. The properties of apparent density was determined at 15% moisture content, bending strength and stiffness were tested according to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) D198-99, and dynamic modulus of elasticity (Eusw) was measured by ultrasonic technique, for predicting the flexural properties of different grade lumbers. The results showed that Eosw was larger than the static MOE. The relationship between Eusw and static MOE was significant at 0.01 level, and the determination coefficients (R2) of the four grade lumbers followed the sequence as R^2No.2 (0.616)〉 R^2ss (0.567)〉 R^2No1 (0.366)〉 R^2No.3 (0.137). The R^2 of Fusw and MOR were lower than that of the Etru and MOR for each grade. The Eusw of all the grade lumbers, except No.3-grade, had significant correlation with the static MOE and MOR, thus the bending strengthof those grade lumbers can be estimated by the E The Etru valuesof four grade lumbers followed a sequence as No.2-grade (10.701 GPa) 〉 SS-grade (10.359 GPa) 〉 No.l-grade (9.840 GPa) 〉 No.3-grade (9.554 GPa). For the same grade dimension lumber, its Eusw value was larger than static MOE. Mean values of MOR for four grade lumbers follow a sequence as No.2-grade (48.67 MPa) 〉 SS-grade (48.16 MPa) 〉 No.3-grade (46.55 MPa) 〉 No. 1-grade (43.39MPa).展开更多

Research describing wood durability of species from this vegetation type has not been fully determined, nor classified according to international standards. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine and classify the natural durability of ten woody species. Their natural durability was determined according to the European Pre-Norm 807, the loss of dynamic modulus of elasticity (MOEdyo) (MPa) was determined and wood mass loss (g) after being exposed to Trametes versicolor and Coniophora puteana fungi. Wood durability was classified accord- ing to the European Norm 350-1. Highly significant differences (p 〈 0.001) were found between the durability of woody species. The more durable species with lower MOEdyn lost were Condalia hooked (57.5% ± 0.6%), Havardia pallens (58.2% ± 0.4%) and Acacia schaffneri (58.9% ±6.3%). Species with lower mass loss after exposed to Coniophora puteana were Ebenopsis ebano (6.3% ±1.9%), Condalia hooked (8.6% ±2.3%) and Cordia boissieri (11.8% ±2.3%). E. ebano (7.1% ±2.4%), Condalia hooked (8.2% ± 2.5%) and Cordia boissieri (11.5% ± 3.1%) showed the lower mass lost after exposed to T. versicolor. According to European Norm 350-1, three woody species were classified as very durable and durable species.展开更多

Therefore, improving the freeze-thaw resistance of concrete is of great significance for the safety of hydraulic engineering. This paper explores the effect of basalt fibers on improving the frost resistance index of concrete through a series of experiments, and analyzes the influencing mechanism. The results show that adding an appropriate amount of basalt fibers can significantly improve the frost resistance of concrete and reduce the freeze-thaw damage phenomenon indicated by concrete specimens. Adding 0.1% basalt fiber can maintain the relative dynamic modulus of concrete specimens at 98% after 150 freeze-thaw cycles, while adding 0.3% basalt fiber can control the quality loss rate of concrete specimens after 150 freeze-thaw cycles at 0.87%. Taking into account both the frost resistance effect and economic factors, it is recommended that the basalt fiber content in frost resistant concrete be 0.1%. The research results can provide reference and guidance for the optimization design of the mix proportion of hydraulic concrete in cold regions.展开更多
