@@odeball22 Well, sorta. They used a product called Duramold. You can think of Duramold as a kind of advanced plywood maybe even approaching something like layered fiberglass. Wood was layered and molded, impregnated with phenolic resins and pressed into shape. It was an advanced material for its day and outperformed aluminum in many ways. So yes, it was wood. But it was more than that too.

I love the engineering lessons integrated into these videos.

Fun fact, wood can have similar specific properties as some metals such as aluminum and steel. While I was cursing a subject about aerospace structures at college, I learnt that if wood is used properly it can match or surpass some AL alloys, regarding its specific properties, but due to the lack of permeability and effects of moisture, low heat resistance, it loose its place in planes in the 1930-1940.

I'd not say it looses it place in aircraft that early - for me wood only really becomes very rare in aircraft once composites come in as well, for military use wood certainly lasted longer than you suggest, as the first flight of the de Havilland Mosquito wasn't until 1940, and was still in service in the 60's if memory serves... Its not the only wooden aircraft in more recent decades either - really wood in flight only dies when aircraft design requirements tend to either stupidly large or stupidly light - so its probably not even gone now somebody is bound to be building a wooden aircraft, its just rarely used as composites can be made easier and stronger/lighter for the scale and flight profiles that wood might get used.

@@severpop8699 Given how fed up I am already with academic life and as glad as I am that it's finally ending, at 1st I didn't even consider it a typo but then later it did come to mind.

Nice testing! Perhaps two things to note with the engineered wood products: The hook test does not load the materials in the direction the sheet goods were engineered to be strong in. Sure, they can take some load in that direction, but they're mostly designed for the type of loads seen in the bend test. If they ever see what I guess would amount to a shear load across the sheet when used in construction, you've got a huge mechanical advantage due to the size of the sheet, so even when the material itself is (relatively) weak, it will still easily be hold up. Also, especially with OSB and the finer particle board: When used in construction, due to the larger sheet size they're used in, the strong sections will support individual weak spots across the whole area of the sheet, so it's really just the strong sections that determine their overall strength. However, with the small 9x9 samples in the bend test, you'll always capture at least one weak spot, so in that testing, it's exclusively the weak spots that determine their strength.

@OU81TWO

2 жыл бұрын

I'm not so sure that's how it works. A large sheet has a large cross section and can therefore handle large bending loads. A 9x9 piece has a smaller cross section so naturally it can only handle a smaller load. The ratio between load vs the cross sectional should roughly be the same since the mechanical properties (tensile strength) of the wood does not change.

Gotta agree with Thomas. Producing let's say a 2mm x 2mm stick is totally doable for polymers and any solid timber, but such a stick made of almost any of the many fibre boards would not possibly even stay as one piece to begin with. Does it mean the material is infinitely worse as the part breaks apart on it's own? Or course not. Not that I'm a fan of fibre boards, they suck up moisture and deform over time. Low grade furniture makers love it - makes for self-disassembling stuff that creates need for new furniture.

@@jaakkopontinen "Does it mean the material is infinitely worse as it breaks apart on its own?" That's exactly what it means. The mechanical properties of the material usually tells you that up front. There's no real need for testing. It's the first thing you look at when selecting a material to do a specific job. As an example... Particle board tensile strength = 145psi White oak tensile strength = 768 psi PLA tensile = 7250 psi Compressive strengths comparisons however are closer. White Oak = 7440 psi PLA = 13400 psi A 2mm x 2mm stick of wood is not as strong as a 2mm x 2mm stick of PLA. It doesn't matter the size or the shape. PLA has higher tensile, compressive, and shear strength so a given shape will always be stronger in comparison.

Congratulations on the new studio. I'm not surprised by the results. Wood is a remarkable material due to its cellulose fibers. What's really interesting is the super wood created by Liangbing Hu at the University of Maryland. He removes much of the lignin and hemicellulose in a boiling solution of sodium hydroxide and sodium sulphite, then compresses and heats the material. This increases the stiffness by up to 20x, and the strength under compression by 50x. The density is 3x higher.

Nah , hardwoods glue poorly and blunt your tools. The efficiency loss makes them totally inappropriate for prototyping. Strength to weight is also inappropriate. You can cut out marine ply with a Japanese detail saw in seconds in complex shapes. Doing that with hardwood is impossible. The saw will blunt, Teeth too fine. I'm not a carpenter but I build 20m hardwood fences, retaining walls and furniture on my cabinet saw. As well as using marine ply for prototyping.

One thing that would be interesting is to try the bending test on the multiplex again, but with it rotated 90deg, so the force is in line with the glue layers instead of across it. It might alter the results, or it might not, but it would still be interesting to see the results.

At 0:42 you have a X1 cabon. I would like to know what you think about the machine.

Another important use for OSB is where moisture is potentially present and you want the surface to be able to "breathe" and not trap the moisture (eg building walls). The voids are an asset in this case.

Excellent study. I can't say I'm surprised though. I grew up building model planes out of balsa, and I've never been able to match (or exceed) the strength/weight except with an epoxy glass/cf composite. Used properly balsa, spruce, and similar woods, can provide an amazingly strong structure with minimal weight. It's even better when used to create plywoods tuned for the application. I used to use a five ply laminate of 1/32" balsa for fins on rockets. It was much lighter than the recommended 1/8" plywood but was also stiffer and plenty strong. The trick was to construct the layup with the grain aligned for normal bending, and to protect against torsion. Lots of work though. It's much easier to just 3D print it if you can get away with it!

A nice objective test as usual, thank you! However the sheet materials (MDF, ply, particleboard) are best used in shear with edges constrained so without taking anything from this series of tests - it would be interesting to see the results when the deflection load it applied parallel to the grain. This of course highlights the advantages of composites. How would a honeycomb PLA core and a single veneer skin perform for instance?

I would love to see a cost and strength comparison of Balsa vs light weight filaments like LW-PLA & LW-ASA.

Nice testing. The results are pretty much what I expected but my formal education is in the field of engineering. I have also built several aircraft, one was a glider out of spruce and plywood and another was the first man-rated aircraft to fly with a carbon fiber spar; a two seat aircraft using foam core composite construction. I have also designed and constructed many boats both large and small. Some used foam core composite construction and some were mainly plywood. The largest was a high performance 55 foot plywood motor yacht. Both wood/plywood and foam core composite construction lend themselves to one-off DIY building including high performance man carrying aircraft and relatively large boats. None of my major projects were 3D printed of course. As it turns out, plywood construction using a certain amount of wood framing (all protected by a light covering of fiberglass cloth set in epoxy resin) is hard to beat for DIY builders who want to construct strong, stiff, and long lasting boats (even large ones) without investing in expensive tooling. These home built boats nearly always out perform typical factory built fiberglass boats especially when cost is a consideration. The primary reason is because wood is such a great engineering material which can be worked by using relatively simple tools. Foam core composite construction is pretty good for too, but it's generally more expensive, more work, the materials are a little bit nasty, and fiberglass is not as nice to work with when compared with wood. Full disclosure: When I need a soap dish, I always use my 3D printer.

what I liked was that the results really showed the strengths of the different materials especially the hooks. what surprised me was that the spruce performed better than the plywood

Thanks a lot for using MPa on the tests, as it makes it comparable to literally anything, you can check it against metals, the filament's claims, anything tested correctly can be compared.

Overall a very interesting video with lots of solid data.

Hi Stefan, very nice video! Great job! Could you please tell me what do you use to record the pressure exerted during the pressing down of the parts. Thank you.

Great video! I'd like to see the test done with oak, ash, and hard maple to see how they perform. Bubinga and ebony would probably do best but their cost is very high.

Did you try flipping the Plywood for the bending test? I think it would be much stiffer with the layers oriented vertically instead of horizontally

Some wood/bamboo filaments would be interesting to see as well, have always been interested in thermal resistance but never found any research

A great follow-up test would also look at the bending stiffness of multiplex birch when rotated 90 degrees, so that it is not being bent in the “sandwich stack” direction
