Mechacnical and fisic property of Cedrela odorata L. planting in intensive condition
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study has the objective determine some mechanical and physic properties of Cedrela odorata species planting in intensively conditions in Viñales and Alquízar located. The dry air density was in Alquízar higher than Viñales 0,412 g/cm3 by 0,365 g/cm3. In the part of the bole the base is comported very superior related inferior part. The contraction was similar in both located the volumetric was inferior to 10 % and transversals to 5 %. The mechanical property in both located is comported inferior related the studies achievement by Ibáñez y col. (2002). The parallel compression and static bend had values of 391 y 714 kgf/ cm2 related a 298 y 399 kgf/cm2 the first. The organoleptic characteristic show a colour clearer than mature timber and the smell was very simple and deeper in base. The technologic characteristics show a wood easy work and saw.
