Abstract

A study was conducted to determine the kiln drying schedule for hydrid aspen, This kiln drying schedule was found by oven drying method and developed by pilot testing of 2.0cm, 2.5cm, 3.0cm-thick green lumber. The results of this study were as follows: 1. Kiln drying schedule developed by oven-drying method was $T_{12}-E_5$ for 2.5cm-thick green lumber. 2. Drying times for 2.0cm-thick green lumber(127.0 percent moisture content) to 7.3 percent moisture content, for 2.5cm-thick green lumber(95.0 percent moisture content) to 9.7 percent moisture content, and for 3.0cm-thick green lumber(118.5 percent moisture content) to 10.0 percent moisture content were 45 hours, 45 hours, and 54 hours, respectively. 3. Drying rate from 90 to 10 percent moisture content of 2.5cm-thick lumber was about 0.7 times faster than that of 2.0cm-thick lumber and about 1.1 times faster than that of 3.0em-thick lumber. 4. End checks for 2.0cm-, 2.5cm-, and 3.0cm-thick green lumber occurred 95, 74 and 100 percent moisture content, respectively and reached maximum amount in 53, 41, and 60 percent moisture content, respectively. 5. No surface check and no honeycomb occurred. 6. Cupping and collapse slightly occurred and the quality of dry lumber was first.
