Course No. S-2004

Credit: 2 PDH

Course Fee: $57.90 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: John Galinski, P.E.

Overview

A basic understanding of the physical properties of wood is desirable since these properties affect a wide variety of products that are manufactured from wood. There are many different physical characteristics or properties among the many different species of wood. In many cases, more than one property of wood is important to the end product. This course is intended to provide the student with a fundamental understanding of the different physical properties and how those physical properties can affect the end product.

In this course, the student will review Chapter 3, Physical Properties and Moisture Relations of Wood from General Technical Report FPL-GTR-113, “Wood Handbook – Wood as an Engineering Material” published by the Forest Products Laboratory, USDA Forest Service (issued March 1999).

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of fifteen (15) questions at the end of this course to earn PDH credits.
