Moisture content of wood - influence on mechanical behavior of wood filled impact limiter and importance for quality surveillance during manufacturing
- The moisture content of wood is known to have a significant influence on the woods mechanical properties. Using wood as an energy absorber in impact limiter of packages for the transport of radioactive material, it is of particu-lar importance to ensure the moisture content and thus relevant mechanical properties to be in specified limits. The paper surveys the influence of wood moisture content on the mechanical properties of wood. Different measuring methods are discussed with respect to in-situ applicability, accuracy and effort. The results of an experimental ana-lysis of the accuracy of hand-held moisture meters using the electrical resistance method are discussed. Conclu-sions are drawn regarding the measurement of moisture content of wood upon delivery as well as of complete im-pact limiter assemblies. Requirements for quality surveillance during manufacturing of wood filled impact limiter are derived and it is exemplified how to meet them.
