Development and assessment of non-destructive evaluation techniques for the measurment of stress and strain in biological materials

The heterogeneous and anisotropic nature of wood material creates additional design challenges not present with the use of other structural materials such as steel and aluminum. The natural variation in the physical properties of wood members requires that the specified strengths and resistances us...
