Expert Commentary
The umbrella standard for Small Clear Specimens of Timber. It is the parent of wood testing, detailing methods for moisture-stable, knot-free wood. For MTO, this standard drives the design of our entire timber testing catalog. Key methods include Hardness and Static Bending. The technical focus is on the Grain Orientation (Radial vs. Tangential); our software includes metadata tags to ensure that the strength values are correctly categorized based on the wood’s anatomical direction.
