Abstract:

The failure surfaces of Chinese fir and Masson pine under tension perpendicular to grain, tension parallel to grain and impacting are observed by SEM. The results show that the pattern of load and the speed of load have effect on wood fracture. The microscopic structure of wood also influences wood fracture.

Key words: Chinese fir, Masson pine, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Failure process
