Modeling of Falling Ball Impact Test Response on Solid, Veneer, and Traditional Engineered Wood Floorings of Several Hardwoods [PDF]
Forests, 2022 Hardness is a key mechanical property of flooring materials. In this study, the performance of veneer floorings (with a top layer thickness of 0.6 mm) was investigated by dynamic hardness tests, comparing it with those of traditional engineered wood floorings (with a top layer thickness of 3 mm) and solid wood floorings.

Quality Aspects of Sliced Oak Lamellae in Development of Engineered Wood Flooring
, 2023 Valuable hardwoods, such as oak, although renewable, present limitations in product realisation in terms of their cost and availability, often attributed to production waste and sub-optimal product design factors. The slicing technique facilitates the production of thin wood lamellae, minimising waste and ensuring optimal material conversion.

Moisture-induced stresses in engineered wood flooring with OSB substrate
Journal of Wood Science, 2012 Engineered wood flooring (EWF) is a multilayer composite flooring product. The cross layered structure is designed to give good dimensional stability to the EWF under changing environmental conditions. However, during winter season in North America, the indoor relative humidity could decrease dramatically and generate an important cupping deformation ...

Modelling of Impact Falling Ball Test Response on Solid and Engineered Wood Flooring of Two Eucalyptus Species [PDF]
Forests, 2020 In this study, dynamic hardness tests on solid and engineered wood flooring specimens of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. and Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden hardwoods were performed because nowadays, these fast-growing hardwoods are still scarcely employed for this use.

Effect of Structural Design on the Pore Structure, Water Resistance, and Mechanical Properties of Engineered Wood/Bamboo Laminated Composites. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2022 An important principle in rational manufacturing design is matching the properties of composites to their intended uses. Herein, six laminated composites (LCs) were manufactured using fibrous moso bamboo and poplar veneer units, and their pore structure,

Orange Wood for Parquet and Engineered Flooring Use
BioResources, 2017 Orange is a fruit of the Citrus genus in the family Rutaceae. It is assumed to have originated in southern Asia, and to have been first cultivated in China around 2500 BC. There is little knowledge on the quality of wood from orange trees, which is occasionally used in fine woodwork, tool handles, mosaics, and marquetry. This work aimed to evaluate the
