Wood moisture content affects strength, stability, and durability; equilibrium moisture content depends on humidity and temperature.

Stapsgewijze handleiding

  1. 1Input ambient humidity and temperature
  2. 2Calculate equilibrium moisture content
  3. 3Estimate effects on dimensional stability and strength

Uitgewerkte voorbeelden

Invoer
65% RH, 20°C: MC ≈ 12%
Resultaat
Typical indoor moisture content for stability

Veelgemaakte fouten om te vermijden

  • Assuming dry (0% MC) is possible
  • Not allowing equilibration time

Veelgestelde vragen

Why does moisture matter for wood?

Swelling/shrinkage causes warping, checking; moisture above fiber saturation (~28%) enables decay.
