Summary | "The Mechanical Properties of Wood" by Samuel J. Record is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a comprehensive guide aimed primarily at students of forestry, educating them on the technical properties of wood, including its mechanical behaviors under various stresses and conditions. The beginning of the work introduces the reader to the essential mechanics of wood, explaining fundamental concepts such as stress, strain, and the general behavior of wood under external forces. Record outlines the purpose and structure of the book, which is divided into parts addressing the mechanical properties of wood, the factors affecting these properties, and methods of testing timber. He emphasizes the variability in wood's strength and the necessity for precise testing to ensure practical applications in construction and other uses. By contextualizing the complexities of wood's structure and mechanical response, Record lays the groundwork for an insightful exploration of timber mechanics.
