Abstract
The influence of temperature on the modulus of elasticity (MOE) and on the flexural stiffness of Pinus sylvestris L. was determined under temperature conditions ranging from 25 to 300°C for samples with a water content of about 6.0%. The experiments were carried out on microsamples, with a thermomechanical analyser, in isothermal conditions and under temperature ramping rates. The behaviour of the curves of the MOE is explained by wood drying and by the behaviour of the wood polymers as a function of temperature. The results obtained by thermomechanical analysis were validated by the results obtained by centre-point bending tests on small scale samples, which therefore allows for its use in modelling the behaviour of timber structures during a fire.
