COMPARISON OF EXPERIMENTAL CHARRING RATE OF SOME SELECTED CONSTRUCTIONAL WOOD SPECIES FROM SOUTH WESTERN NIGERIA WITH SELECTED CHARRING MODELS
The rate at which timber chars varies between species and predominately dependent on density and moisture content. This study involved determination of charring performance of Nigerian wood species used for constructional purposes and comparing their charring rate with selected existing models. Six...
