Modelling the distribution of the variability of Maritime Pine for wooden sawn timber and finger jointing
Maritime Pine wood is a highly heterogeneous material at various scales. This material can, however, be used in timber frame structures, but a more accurate assessment of its mechanical properties will improve its value and lead to more reliable designs. This paper reports the experimental results and statistical analysis of a large testing programme on Maritime Pine from south–west France. A model is established for mapping the properties at tree scale and quantifying internal variability, which is much larger than inter-tree variability. The ability of green finger jointing to reduce the effect of large defects is confirmed, since it leads to mechanical performances satisfying the C24 requirements of EN 14081, whatever the location of wood in the tree.
