متن کاملResidual Strength and Stiffness of Lumber from Decommissioned Chromated Copper Arsenate–Treated Southern Pine Utility Poles
The reusability of decommissioned treated wood is primarily dependent on the residual strength of the wood after service. Determining the residual strength can provide useful information for structural design and reuse of the decommissioned treated wood. This study evaluated the residual strength of decommissioned chromated copper arsenate–treated utility pole wood. Eleven decommissioned southe...
