Definitions
WOOD Is a material that comes from cutting and processing trees (p. 373)
MODIFIED WOOD Is treated wood or a material made with wood mixed with other substances
WOOD vs. MODIFIED WOOD: WOODMODIFIED WOOD
Mechanical Properties
Hardness Hardwood is harder than softwood Healthier trees have a higher level of hardness
Oak Hardwood Floor
Elasticity Wood usually has good elasticity It can suffer many impacts without becoming permanently deformed
Resilience When wood has adequate moisture content it is resilient and resistant to breakage When wood is dry it breaks easily
Ductility Wood has very little to no ductility It can not be stretched
Malleability Heat increases the malleability of wood. A plank or piece of wood can be bent if it is heated to a certain amount
Wood Bending
Tensile Strength Wood has excellent tensile strength so it is often used to support heavy loads. Hardwood has more tensile strength than softwood.

Factors Affecting the Mechanical Properties of Wood
Factors affecting the mechanical… Species of tree Growth rate of tree Moisture content of tree Injuries sustained by tree (fungi, insects, etc)

Main Types of Modified Wood
Treated Wood Made by heating wood to high temperatures or by dipping it into a copper-based chemical product
Laminated Wood Is made by gluing small pieces of wood together
Plywood Is made by gluing together large sheets of wood
Particle Board Is made with wood chips and wood waste Particles are bonded with various products
Fiberboard (MDF) Is made by first separating wood fibers (very fine sawdust) Fibers are bonded with various products
Advantages of Using Modified Wood
Advantages Stable mechanical properties Weather resistant Used to manufacture large materials Made from small trees Made with wood chips and wood waste
