Abstract

We evaluated physical and mechanical wood properties of Hovenia dulcis Thumberg, from six trees. Samples were taken from three different positions in the stem. The mean apparent specific gravity was 0.64 g cm-3 and the moisture content after conditioning at 20 °C and 65% relative humidity was 15.5%. Physical wood properties were different among trees and stem position. The average mechanical properties values indicate a C20 timber class when applying NBR 7190/97 hardwood classification, except for the modulus of elasticity in parallel compression.
