Expert Commentary
Covers Compression Parallel to Surface. This assesses the panel’s ability to act as a structural column. Due to the relative thinness of many particle boards, global buckling is a major risk. Our fixtures include lateral support fingers or anti-buckling guides that prevent the specimen from bowing while allowing it to shorten axially. For MTO, this necessitates high-precision alignment of the upper and lower platens to ensure uniform stress distribution across the small cross-sectional area of the panel edge.
