ASSIGNMENT No.1

Name: Gole Cruz, Arvin R.


SN: 162-0103
Date: October 15, 2020
Professor: DR.WINIFREDO GONZALES
FIBERBOARD is a fibrous-felted, homogeneous panel made from lignocellulosic fibers
(usually wood or sugar cane bagasse) and having a density of less than 497 kg/m3 but
more than 160 kg/m3.

FOREST PRODUCTS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTE (FPRDI) is the


Department of Science and Technology’s (DOST) research and development arm on
forest products utilization. It is mandated to conduct basic and applied research to
help the wood-using industries disseminate information and technologies on forest
products to end users.
GLUED BUILT-UP MEMBERS are structural elements, the sections of which are
composed of built-up lumber, wood structural panels or wood structural panels in
combination with lumber, all parts bonded together with adhesive.

GRADE

(Lumber), the classification of lumber in regard to strength and utility in accordance


with the grading rules of an approved lumber grading agency.

HARDBOARD is a fibrous-felted, homogeneous panel made from lignocellulosic fibers


consolidated under heat and pressure in a hot press to a density not less than 497
kg/m3.
MACHINE GRADED LUMBER (MGL) is a lumber evaluated by a machine using a non-
destructive test and sorted into different stress grades.

MOISTURE CONTENT (MC) is the amount of moisture in wood, usually measured as


the percentage of water to the oven dry weight of the wood.
NOMINAL SIZE (Lumber) refers to the commercial size designation of width and depth,
in standard sawn lumber grades; somewhat larger than the standard net size of
dressed lumber.

NORMAL LOADING, a design load that stressed a member or fastening to the full
allowable stress tabulated in this chapter. This loading may be applied for
approximately 10 years, either continuously or
cumulatively, and 90 percent of this load may be
applied for the remainder of the life of the member or
fastening.
PARTICLEBOARD is a manufactured panel product consisting of particles of wood or
combinations of wood particles and wood fibers bonded together with synthetic resins
or other suitable bonding system by a bonding process, in accordance with approved
nationally recognized standard.

PLYWOOD is a panel of laminated veneers conforming to Philippine National Standards


(PNS 196) “Plywood Specifications”.
ROTATION is the torsional movement of a diaphragm about a vertical axis.
STRUCTURAL GLUED-LAMINATED TIMBER is any member comprising an assembly of
laminations of lumber in which the grain of all laminations is approximately parallel
longitudinally, in which the laminations are bonded with adhesives.

SUBDIAPHRAGM is a portion of a larger wood diaphragm designed to anchor and


transfer local forces to primary diaphragm struts and the main diaphragm.

TREATED WOOD is wood treated with an approved preservative under treating and
quality control procedures.
WOOD OF NATURAL RESISTANCE TO DECAY OR TERMITES is the heartwood of the
species set forth below. Corner sapwood is permitted on 5 percent of the pieces
provided 90 percent or more of the width of each side on which it occurs is heartwood.
Recognized species are:
Decay resistant: Narra, Kamagong, Dao, Tangile.
Termite resistant: Narra, Kamagong.

WOOD STRUCTURAL PANEL is a structural panel product composed primarily of wood


and meeting the UBC Standard 23-2 and 23-3 or equivalent requirements of Philippine
National Standards (PNS). Wood structural panels include all-veneer plywood,
composite panels containing a combination of veneer and wood-based material, and
mat-formed panel such as oriented stranded board and waferboard.
