Derivation of Grade Stresses of Malaysian Tropical Timber in Structural Size
The strength data for timbers established in British and European standards (BSEN 5268 and EC5 respectively) are based on large size specimens. However the strength data of Malaysian timbers are based on small clear specimens. This study attempts to compare data on the bending strength properties of timbers in structural size and small clear specimens. Eight selected Malaysian timbers from different strength groupings were used in this study. The results of bending strength from small clear specimens were statistically correlated with the results from the structural size specimens. Based on large size specimens, the strength groupings of some of the timbers are not in the same strength groupings based on small clear specimens.
