In order to develop effective recycling technologies of disused railway wood ties, wood properties and residual creosote oil of wood ties were investigated. Among the total 50 wood ties, 32 wood ties were identified as tropical hardwood tree, such as, Keruing (Dipterocarpus spp.), Kempas (Koompassia malaccensis), Kapur (Dryobalanops spp.) Naytoh (Palaquium rostratum), and so on. Disused wood ties showed mostly sound structure without degradation of cell walls by decay fungi. Disused wood ties showed high strengths of bending and compressive parallel to grain because degradation of wood properties was hardly occurred in use under exterior condition. Disused railway wood ties had relatively poor depth of penetration and residual of creosote oil because of refractory wood structures. These results suggest that disused railway wood ties may be useful as recycling wood wastes.

This research examined the technical feasibility of composite that had 2- and 3- layers of fiberglass reinforcement to enhance the load carrying capacity of particleboard. Specimens were prepared from commercial particleboard. Results indicated that bending properties, hardness and impact bending energy increased as the number of layers of fiberglass reinforcement increased. The wood screw withdrawal load only decreased at the 3-layer of fiberglass reinforcement. The technique developed by this study may increase an opportunity to use particleboard for structural purposes.

Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technique method using a resonance frequency mode was carried out for woodceramics produced at different carbonizing temperatures (600℃, 800℃, 1000℃, 1200℃, 1500℃) at the phenol resin impregnation rate of 70%, for three kinds of species (Pinus densifora, Pinus koraiensis, Larix leptolepis), respectively. There was a poor relationship between density and static bending MOR. However, close correlations were found between dynamic MOE_d and static bending MOR, and between static MOEs and MOR. Especially, the correlation coefficient was highest between MOE_d and static bending MOR. Therefore, the MOE_d using the resonance frequency mode is useful as a NDE method for predicting the MOR of woodceramics produced at different carbonizing temperatures.

As a fundamental study of developing sawdust board from thinning softwood logs from three species (Pinus densiflora S. et Z., Larix leptolepis G. and Pinus koraiensis S. et Z.), this study examined the effect of board density and resin content on physical and mechanical properties of sawdust board. As the board density increase, thickness swelling, bending strength, and Brinell hardness increased while water absorption decreased. With increasing the resin content, the bending strength and hardness increased while water absorption and thickness swelling decreased. The board made of L. leptolepis was slightly low in its water absorption, and the one made of P. koraiensis was a little high in its bending strength, while there was no definite difference between each kind of trees in their hardness values.

Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technique method using a resonance frequency mode was carried out for heat-treated wood under different conditions. The effect of heat treatment on the bending strength and NDE technique using the resonance frequency by impact hammer and force transducer mode for Korean paulownia, Pinus densiflora, Lidiodendron tulipifera and Betula costata were measured. The heat treatment temperature has been investigated at $175^{\circ}C$ and $200^{\circ}C$, respectively. There were a close relationship of dynamic modulus of elasticity and static bending modulus of elasticity to MOR. In all conditions, It was found that there were a high correlation at 1% level between dynamic modulus of elasticity and MOR, and static modulus of elasticity and MOR. However, the result indicated that correlation coefficient is higher in dynamic modulus of elasticity to MOR than that in static modulus of elasticity to MOR. Therefore, the dynamic modulus of elasticity using resonance frequency by impact hammer mode is more useful as a nondestructive evaluation method for predicting the MOR of heat-treated wood under different temperature and species conditions.

This study was to find a way of reusing wood and plastic wastes, which considered as a troublesome problem to be solved in this age of mass production and consumption, in manufacturing wood fiber-polypropylene fiber composite panel. And the feasibility of this composite panel as a substitute for existing headliner base panel of automobile was also discussed, especially based on physical and mechanical performance. Nonwoven web composite panels were made from wood fiber and polypropylene fiber formulations of 50 : 50, 60 : 40, and 70 : 30, based on oven-dry weight, with densities of 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, and 0.7 g/$cm^3$. At the same density levels, control fiberboards were also manufactured for performance comparison with the composite panels. Their physical and mechanical properties were tested according to ASTM D 1037-93. To elucidate thickness swelling mechanism of composite panel through the observation of morphological change of internal structures, the specimens before and after thickness swelling test by 24-hour immersion in water were used in scanning electron microscopy. Test results in this study showed that nonwoven web composite panel from wood fibers and polypropylene fibers had superior physical and mechanical properties to control fiberboard. In the physical properties of composite panel, dimensional stability improved as the content of polypropylene fiber increased, and the formulation of wood fiber and polypropylene fiber was considered to be a significant factor in the physical properties. Water absorption decreased but thickness swelling slightly increased with the increase of panel density. In the mechanical properties of composite panel, the bending modulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) appeared to improve with the increase of panel density under all the tested conditions of dry, heated, and wet. The formulation of wood fiber and polypropylene fiber was considered not to be a significant factor in the mechanical properties. All the bending MOR values under the dry, heated, and wet conditions met the requirements in the existing headliner base panel of resin felt.

In this study, the bending behavior of cross-laminated timber (CLT) connected by nails were investigated. Especially, the load-carrying capacity of the nail-jointed CLT under out-of-plane bending was predicted by the lateral resistance of the used nails. Three-layer nail-jointed CLT specimens and a nail connection were manufactured by 30 mm (thickness) ${\times}$ 100 mm (width) domestic species (Pinus koraiensis) laminas and Ø$3.15{\times}82mm$ nails using a nail-gun. Shear test for evaluating the nail lateral resistance and bending test for evaluating the load-carrying capacity of the nail-jointed CLT under out-of-plane bending were carried out. As a result, two lateral resistance of the used nail, the 5% fastener offset value and the maximum value, were 913 N and 1,534 N, respectively. The predicted load-carrying capacity of the nail-jointed CLT by the 5% offset nail lateral resistance was similar to the yield points on the actual load-displacement curve of the nail-jointed CLT specimens. Meanwhile, the nail-jointed CLT specimens were not failed until the tension failure of the bottom laminas occurred beyond the maximum lateral resistance of the nails. Thus, the measured maximum load carrying capacities of the nail-jointed CLT specimens, approximately 12,865 N, were higher than the predicted values, 7,986 N, by the maximum nail lateral resistance. This indicates that the predicted load-carrying capacity can be used for designing a structural unit such as floor, wall and roof able to support vertical loads in a viewpoint of predicting the actual capacities more safely.

In this study, bending and compression strength tests were performed to investigate effect of composition of layer layout of Larix cross-laminated timber (CLT) on mechanical properties. The Larix CLT consists of five laminae, and specimens were classified into four types according to grade and composition of layer. The layer's layout were composited as follows 1) cross-laminating layers in major and minor direction (Type A), and 2) cross-laminating external layer in major direction and internal layer applied grade of layer in minor direction (Type B). E12 and E16 were used as grades of lamina for major direction layer of Type A and external layer of Type B according to KS F 3020. In results of the bending test of CLT using same grade layer according to layer composition, the modulus of elasticity (MOE) of Type B was higher than Type A. In case of prediction of bending MOE of Larix CLT, the experimental MOE was higher than 1.00 to 1.09 times for Shear analogy method and 1.14 to 1.25 times for Gamma method. Therefore, it is recommended to predict the bending MOE for Larix CLT by shear analogy method. Compression strength of CLT in accordance with layer composition was measured to be 2% and 9% higher for Type A using E12 and E16 layers than Type B, respectively. In failure mode of Type A, progress direction of failure generated under compression load was confirmed to transfer from major layer to minor layer by rolling shear or bonding line failure due to the middle lamina in major direction.

주요 조림수종으로 도입 식재된 리기다소나무의 고부가가치 이용을 위한 구조용 집성재 이용 가능성을 검토하고, 이에 적합한 기술을 개발하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 국산 리기다소나무 제재목의 기계응력등급은 대부분 E7에서 E9등급으로 집성재 제조에는 다소 불량한 것으로 나타났다. 반면 단일수종 및 혼합수종 구조용 집성재 제조에 필수적인 리기다소나무 및 낙엽소 판재의 접착성을 평가한 결과 전단접착력, 목파율, 침지 및 삶음박리율 모두 KS기준 이상으로 나타났다. 리기다소나무 단일수종 집성재의 휨성능을 측정해본 결과 휨강도는 KS의 집성재 강도등급에 따른 휨성능 합격기준을 만족한 반면 휨 탄성계수는 기준에 다소 못 미치는 결과를 나타내었다. 그러나 낙엽송 층재와의 혼합구성을 통해 리기다소나무 집성재의 휨성능(휨강도와 휨탄성계수)을 20% 향상시킬 수 있었으며, 층재 구성방법에 있어서는 판재의 탄성계수가 높고 품질이 우수한 낙엽송 층재를 외층에 배치하는 방법이 보다 효과적인 것으로 확인되었다. 결론적으로 리기다소나무의 부가가치 증진을 위한 구조용 집성재 이용은 그 가능성이 매우 컸다.

본 연구에서는 국내에서 상업적으로 이용되고 있는 국산 낙엽송 열처리재의 여러 가지 물성(밀도, 평형함수율, 수축률, 흡습/흡수성, 종/횡압축강도, 휨강도, 경도, 내부후성능)을 정량적으로 평가하기 위하여 수행되었다. 고온처리에 의해 목재의 소수성이 증가함에 따라 평형함수율이 감소하였다. 이에 따라 수축률 및 흡습/흡수성이 감소하여 치수안정성이 개선되었고, 낮은 함수율의 영향으로 압축강도가 증가하였으며, 목재 주성분의 변화와 낮은 함수율의 영향으로 내부후성능이 개선되었다. 하지만 열처리에 의해 밀도와 휨강도 및 경도는 감소하였다.
