This book was released on 2005 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes a project to assess the accuracy of two instruments for detecting wood decay in trees in order to assess their accuracy & applicability for collecting decay data in Ontario forests. The instruments tested were the Silbert Digital MicroProbe and the Resistograph F400. In general, both instruments measure & record the resistance encountered by a thin probe as it drills through wood. The use of these instruments was compared with visually measuring decay in 60 aspen logs and 71 sugar maple logs. The instruments were also used in boreal mixedwood & tolerant hardwood stands to determine their operability under field conditions.

Book excerpt: An in-depth examination of deterioration caused by fungi and other microorganisms, Wood Microbiology explores the major damages to wood and wood products during growth, harvesting, storage, and conversion to finished lumber. The characteristics, causes, detection, effects, and control measures for wood damage are stressed. Reviews characteristics, classification, and metabolism of fungi responsible for wood deterioration and discoloration Examines the anatomical, structural, and chemical features of decay Covers effects of decay on physical and structural properties of wood Presents methods for preventing biodegradation and for preserving wood Extensively classroom tested--suitable for a two-quarter or one-semester course Each chapter contains a summary and detailed references

This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wood-destroying fungi play an important role in nature, because they are the only forms of life capable of reducing wood to its initial constituents. However, they can also be dangerous for people and property, as they can impair the stability and fracture-safety of trees. This book gives detailed information, based on new and original scientfic findings, on the examination and effects of the most important species of fungi associated with failure of infected urban trees. In addition, new ways are presented for predicting the advance of decay in the living tree. The subject is illustrated and made easily accessible by numerous colored photos of fungus fruit bodies, defect symptoms, and macroscopic and microscopic pictures of wood decay. A detailed introduction to the fundamentals of wood pathology provides a way into the subjects of applied mycology and tree care for readers without previous special knowledge. Francis W.M.R.

Download or read book Basic Decay Detection Manual for Trees and Timber Structures written by Peter Blank and published by peter blank. This book was released on 2006 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decay in trees is one of the most common causes of tree failure. Peter Blank from IML Australia has compiled more than six years of research on decay detection into an easy to understand manual. It is the most comprehensive manual written on this subject, particularly for Australian conditions. There are some 460 pages that includes many color photos and easy to understand graphics that show and explain where and why a tree can fail due to decay. Topics range from the use of the Resistograph (mechanical decay detection) to basic hazard assessment, tree mechanics, basic pruning to prevent future failures. This manual is a handy tool for the Consulting Arborist. It is also a good reference for the local government for there staff and when employing contractors. It is also a great tool of reference when writing tree reports. The manual also contains an assessment section with multiple choice questions for certification. The certification will ensure that a high standard is achieved and maintained for Resistograph operators and Consulting Arborists around Australia and world wide.
