Using deciduous branch wood and conifer spindle wood to manufacture panels with transverse structure

The increasing demand on the wood market makes it necessary to use all secondary resources, including branches and spindles. properties of deciduous softwood spindles were evaluated in order create panels, highlighting transverse texture with high value added. research analyzed from (beech, maple) conifer (spruce, fir) methodology obtaining panels transversal structure was also presented. production minor (branches or spindles) 254 m3/ha/year case beech (branches) 109 spruce (spindles). proportion compression for had an average 40.6%. A similar tension obtained. modulus elasticity pine spindle 71.7% lower than bending strength trunk. quality index 36.7% trunk, ratio branch maple 2.61% trunk wood. Thus, even if is not only efficient solution, portions can be used make value-added such as those that highlight structure.
