DESCRIPTION GÉNÉRALE DU BOIS

Odeur

Fresh wood has an unpleasant smell.

Teinte

The sapwood varies from straw to buff, not clearly demarcated. The heartwood is cream to pale brown.

Grain

The grain is reported to be straight or shallowly interlocked.

Texture

Texture is usually medium to coarse.

Durabilité naturelle

Logs are very susceptible to blue-stain, termite and pinhole borer attack, unless rapidly removed from forest or given protective treatment.

OUVRABILITÉ

Sciage

The wood has a tendency to tear when quarter sawing boards with interlocked grain.

Coupe de placage de déroulage

Slicing is possible, but it may not be satisfactory due to the presence of harder and softer zones.

Placage tranche

Slicing is possible, but it may not be satisfactory due to the presence of harder and softer zones.

Effet d'émoussement

It is reported to gum up the saw-teeth. The blades must be cleaned frequently.

Rabotage

The response of this species to planing operations is good to fair. It tends to tear on radial boards with interlocked grain.

Moulurage

It can be used for molding with satisfactory results.

Tournage

30

Finissage

It finishes satisfactorily after filling

Cintrage à la vapeur

Steam bending properties are poor.
