Strength grading of structural timber in different grade combinations |
Sekundarni povzetek: |
Good knowledge of the characteristics of building material is of the utmost importance in
static calculations in civil engineering. The characteristics of a piece of timber may vary
depending on the growth area, log, and cutting. Therefore, each piece of timber should be
examined separately. The examination is based on non-destructive testing, distinguishing –
as in our case – between different strength grades. Eurocode 5 refers to the EN 14081
standard, which allows visual and machine grading. In order to identify the differences
between the two, we carried out several measurements and compared them. We used
several non-destructive methods (visual grading, longitudinal wave propagation,
ultrasound, bending test and longitudinal frequency). Results of each non-destructive
method were compared to the bending strength obtained with the destruction method. We
made some correlations and evaluated them. The specimens were classified into optimal
strength grades and the results compared with strength grades obtained by selected nondestructive
methods. We also tested a prototype device developed during the project and
compared it with other devices and visual standards. The device did well. Assuming that
our sample is representative for Slovenia, we can conclude that the majority of Slovene
timber can be classified into strength grade C30. Considering that in civil engineering the
mark most widely used in practice is the old mark from the JUS Standard – class II or
today's C24 –, structural design is on the safe side despite the lack of knowledge concerning
the actual characteristics of wood. However, this is certainly not economical, since the
timber is not used to its full potential. With the use of grading machines, most construction
timber can be classified into strength grade C30 without major reject. |

V gradbeništvu je dobro poznavanje vgrajenega materiala zelo pomembno pri statičnih
izračunih. Lastnosti kosa lesa se lahko razlikujejo glede na rastišče, glede na hlod in glede
na razrez. Zato je treba vsak kos lesa pregledati posebej. Temu pregledovanju rečemo
razvrščanje na osnovi nedestruktivnih meritev. V našem primeru razvrščamo v trdnostne
razrede. Evrokod 5 se sklicuje na standard EN 14081, ki dopušča vizualno in strojno
razvrščanje. Z namenom ugotovitve razlik med obema, smo naredili več meritev in jih
primerjali. Opisali smo več nedestruktivnih metod, ki smo jih uporabili (vizualno
razvrščanje, vzdolžno širjenje valov, ultrazvok, upogibni preizkus in vzdolžno nihanje).
Vse nedestruktivne metode smo primerjali s trdnostjo, pridobljeno s porušno metodo.
Naredili smo nekaj korelacij in jih ovrednotili. Preizkušance smo na podlagi standarda
optimalno razvrstili v trdnostne razrede in te primerjali s trdnostnimi razredi, dobljenimi z
nekaterimi nedestruktivnimi metodami. Preizkusili smo tudi prototip naprave, razvite med
projektom, in jo primerjali z ostalimi napravami ter z vizualnim standardom. Naprava se je
dobro izkazala. Ob predpostavki, da je naš vzorec reprezentativen za Slovenijo, lahko
zaključimo, da spada večina slovenskega lesa v trdnostni razred C30. Glede na to, da se v
praksi pri projektiranju še vedno večinoma uporablja stara oznaka iz JUS standardov, II.
klasa oziroma današnja C24, je projektiranje kljub nepoznavanju dejanskih lastnosti lesa na
zelo varni strani. Nikakor pa ni ekonomično, saj vgrajen les ni dovolj izkoriščen. Ob
uporabi naprav za razvrščanje hitro ugotovimo, da lahko brez večjih ostankov pri
razvrščanju pri projektiranju uporabljamo trdnostni razred C30. |
