Draw a graph to show the typical stress–strain curve for wood. On the graph,show the modulus of elasticity. State three different factors that affect thisrelationship.
What is the typical load duration used in designing wood structures? If awood beam is designed for use at a one-week event only, should the designer increase or decrease the allowable fiber stress relative to the allowable stress used for normal applications? How much increase or decrease?
If a wood beam is designed for use at 2 months event only, should the designer increase or
decrease the allowable stress relative to the allowable stress used for normal applications?
