Time to get out the lab coats, bunsen burners and verniers.
This is serious stuff.
No fun shall be had here today darnit.
Today it’s all science, and hard facts.
If you want fun and frolics you’d better skip the hard stuff go straight to the bitesize chunks of fun down below 🙂
We’re talking chemistry, physics, biology and maths.
Wood and water.
Which, in woodgeek terms, means Species data, Durability classes and Moisture Movement.
Yes, you heard right.
We come bearing data sheets about incremental shrinkage and Newton-metres.
We’ve got no shame.
So without further a do, here they are – our versions of the data established by TRADA and the BRE from scientific research going back 50 odd years, to provide technical information to designers, specifiers and woodworkers alike so that they could make informed decisions about working with wood.
Now it;s your turn.
Go forth, and make calculated, informed decisions about Water and Wood.
Don’t forget folks, this info is not for storage in your noggin.
No trying to hold it in your busy brain.
Save it onto your phone.
Bookmark the website links.
Print the sheets in a glovebox friendly format.
Is there any wood info you’re desperate for? Anything you’d like us to document for you? If you feel so inspired, let us know which boring pdf would you like us to make next?
Have a wonderfully Happy Easter out there woodfans!
