14. Advantage and disadvantage of
timber
advantage disadvantage
Soft Not homegeneous, there is timber
yard, slanting fibre, inequality as
nature plant result.
Have been worked easily Behave higroskopis namely
impressionable by change humidity
of the air
Cheap prise inflammable
Sufficiently high strength The existence of disabled on wood
when grow timber yard , crack ,
stale
Enough preserve
15. plywood
A number of thin veneers or plies of softwood or
hardwood glued together.
The reason the use :
* dimensionally stable,
* less cracked,
* will not warp, shrink, and impartial.
Advantages of plywood :
* Size standard / standard size (4 feet x 8 feet is
the normal size)
*Low cost for size
*strength
* Stability (warping and shrinkage problems are rare)
16. Grade of plywood :
* "A" is the highest quality grade available. The surface
is usually smoothed and flatsurfaces can be painted.
* "B "grade quality veneer as the second
best. has a solid surface. Wood surface is usually smoothed.
* "C" is low quality, but still be an option for use
in construction. This panel is usually not smoothed.
* "D" is low quality and usually used for the rear
surface in the construction industry. Grade "D" has never
been repaired or smoothed. not recommended for use as
a permanent weather elements.
17. Medium density fibreboard
(MDF)
Sources : MDF is a type of hardboard, which is made from
wood fibres glued under heat and pressure.
Advantages :
*It is dense, flat, stiff, has no knots and is easily machined.
* MDF can be painted to produce a smooth quality surface.
*MDF may be glued together with PVA wood glue. Oil,
water-based paints
and varnishes may be used on MDF.
*Veneers and laminates may also used to finish
MDF
18. Disadvantages :
*MDF contains a substance called urea formaldehyde, may
cause
irritation to the eyes and lungs.
*facemasks are needed when sanding or cutting MDF .
* MDF contains a great deal of glue the cutting edges of
your tools will
blunt very quickly.
Uses :
* It may be used to make display cabinets,
*wall-panels and storage units.
19. chipboard/ particle
board
Sources: -Gluing together wood particles with an adhesive,
under heat and pressure makes chipboard. This creates a
rigid board with a relatively smooth surface.
Chipboard is available in :
*normal - is fairly soft
*medium - between normal and high density , only suitable
for internal use
*high-density - is solid and hard
Uses : kitchen tops and fire doors
20. Disadvantages : All grades of chipboard except the high-
density variety tend to soak up water. Once it is water logged,
chipboard tends to swell and breakdown.
Uses: -High-density : as the carcass for kitchen units and
worktops and flooring.
* hardwearing, rigid and heavy.
- standard : flame-retardant, flooring, and
moisture-resistant.
