Effect of Prefreezing on the Perpendicular-To-Grain Creep of First-Dried Redwood
The effect of prefreezing on dimensional change was determined for 0.200-inch-thick flatsawn and quartersawn samples loaded perpendicular to the grain during drying at either 100?F or 160?F. Prefreezing reduced shrinkage […]

Effect of pressure drying and pressure steaming on warp and stiffness of radiata pine lumber
Matched 100- by 40-mm sawn lumber was dried in three kiln runs: run 1: dry 160/100?C, steam 100/100?C (high-temperature (HT) control); run 2: dry 160/100?C, pressure steam 130/130?C; run 3: […]
