Wood is anisotropic, meaning its strength properties vary with grain direction. Compressive strength is highest parallel to the grain and lowest perpendicular to the grain, while tensile strength is slightly lower than compressive strength parallel to the grain. Temperature increases and moisture content increases both decrease wood strength and toughness. Strength also varies significantly between wood species and grades, with lower grades containing more defects like knots that reduce strength values used for design compared to actual laboratory results.

Optimising Treatment System for Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) Particleboard wit...izran kamal
Particleboard is widely used for panelling, partitioning and ceiling in buildings. The treatment of this material to improve fire performance is not an exception. A study was carried out to determine the fire performance of kenaf particleboard treated with phosphorous-based fire retardants. Kenaf core particles were first treated separately with 8 and 10% solutions of monoammonium phosphate (MAP), diammonium phosphate (DAP) and a mixture of boric acid, guanylurea phosphate and phosphoric acid (BP®) using hot and cold bath processes. The soaking time needed to achieve the standard dry salt retention, i.e. 50 kg m-3 was determined. Particleboards from these treated kenaf particles were fabricated and their fire performance evaluated. Using 8% treating solution, it took about 36, 21 and 48 min of immersing in cold bath to achieve the standard retention requirement for MAP, DAP and BP® respectively but for 10% concentration, the times were slightly shorter, i.e. 15, 20 and 35 min respectively. Among the three phosphorous formulations, BP® showed the best performance in improving the insulation and integrity of kenaf particleboard when exposed to fire. This is followed by MAP and DAP. BP® treated board was the last to ignite compared with the other two boards.
