摘要:
Small specimens ofPinus radiatahave been tested to determine the creep strain that occurs during the kiln drying of boards. The samples have been tested over a range of temperatures from 20°C to 140°C. The samples, measuring 150 × 50 × 5 mm, were conditioned at various relative humidities in a pilot-plant kiln, in which the experiments at constant moisture content (MC) in the range of 5-20% MC were undertaken to eliminate mechano-sorptive strains. To determine the creep strain, the samples were brought to their equilibrium moisture content (EMC), then mechanically loaded under tension in the direction perpendicular to the grain. The strain was measured using small linear position sensors (LPS) which detect any elongation or shrinkage in the sample. The instantaneous compliance was measured within 60 sec of the application of the load (stress). The subsequent creep was monitored by the continued logging of strain data from the LPS units.
