Recycled polypropylene (RPP) - Wood Saw Dust (WSD) composites with and without acetylation of filler were produced at different filler loading (15%, 25%, 35% and 45% w/w) and filler size (300, 212 and $100{\mu}m$). The RPP-WSD was compounded using a Haake Rheodrive 500 twin screw compounder at $190^{\circ}C$ at 8 MPa for 30 minutes. The mechanical properties and water absorption properties of modified and unmodified WSD-PP composites were investigated. Acetylation of WSD improved the mechanical and water absorption characteristic of composites. The decrease of filler size (300 to $100{\mu}m$) of the unmodified and acetylated WSD showed increase of tensile strength and impact properties. The composites exhibited higher tensile modulus properties as the filler loading increased (15% to 45%). However tensile strength, elongation at break and impact strength showed the opposite phenomenon. Water absorption increased as the mesh number and filler loading increased. With acetylation, lower moisture absorption was observed as compared to unmodified WSD. The failure mechanism from impact fracture of the filler-matrix interface with and without acetylation was analyzed using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).

Based on limited number of tests on reinforced wood beams using polymer mortar in this study, following conclusions were drawn ; 1.Reinforcing compression side of wood beam using polymer mortar was effective in reducing deflection. 2.By increasing thickness of polymer mortar, effective beam stiffness was improved, but energy absorption was reduced. 3.Polymer mortar reinforcement improved compressive strength and reduced strain in compression side of the beam. Therefore, it was possible to change the failure mode from by compression in control beam to by tension in composite beams. 4.The composite beams that have more than 2cm of polymer mortar layer did not perform well because a strain redistribution and separation of meterials at interface were induced in moment span. 5.To maximize the load carrying capacity of composite beam, it is necessary to make polymer mortar and wood behave together without failing at interface. To do this, it is needed to use a polymer mortar which has high strength with such elastic modulus that is closer to elastic modulus of wood. otherwise, it is recommended to use shear connectors at interface to prevent separation of materials under ultimate load.

It is well-known that the strength properties of wood connections depend on the density of the wood members, the diameter of the fasteners, the number of fasteners, and the arrangement of the fasteners, etc. In this study, the connection with inserted steel plates and drift pins was made in different configurations. The specimens were Larch and Sugi glulam connections. The specimens were loaded in tension, and the yield loads of the connections were obtained. The values obtained from the tests were compared with the predicted values. Good agreement between the yield loads obtained from the tension failure tests and the predicted yield loads were shown. It was shown that the density of the wood member barely affected the strength properties of the connections. The strength decreases of the Sugi glulam connections by the group effect were less than those of the Larch glulam connections.

Exhaust gas containing wood tar of high concentration is discharged from charcoal production kilns. The large amount of emissions are often found by operational failure. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of an integrated treatment system in treating charcoal production exhaust. The system, which combined a tar collection device and a post-combustion unit, was proposed to remove moisture, wood tar, particulate matter, and other gas-phase pollutants (CO, $CH_4$, total hydrogen carbons) from exhaust gases. Heat recovery units were also applied in the system to utilize waste heat.

A residue from the newsprint waste was investigated as a filler in adhesive for bonding southern pine plywood. The residue was prepared by drying the wet residue to 8% moisture content and grinding the dry material using a laboratory Wiley mitt with a 75-${\mu}m$(200-mesh) screen. The residue was compared to a commercial filler commonly used in structural plywood adhesives. A total of 48 three-ply panels. 12.7mm nominal thickness and 0.3 by 0.3 m in size, were fabricated at two press times(4 and 5 min) and three assembly times(20, 40 and 60 min). Evaluations of the residue were carried out by performance tension shear tests after two 4-hour boil accelerated aging tests on plywood. The test results included tension shear strength and estimated wood failure values. All plywood made with the residue filler were comparable to the control-bonded plywood. These results indicate that residue from the newsprint waste streams would be suitable as filler for plywood adhesives.

Yangjindang house, which is located in Sang-ju province of South Korea, is one of the special Hanok structures dated back to Joseon dynasty. This study aims to examine structural safety of the Yangjindang wood frame building considering dynamic parameters such as the natural frequency and damping ratio. The numerical model of the wood frame building is implemented using Midas Gen, especially the wood joint where column and beam were connected. The behavior of the actual frame building was compared with the modeling results. In addition, structure responses such as shear force, axial force, flexural moment and deflections were calculated and compared with the allowable limits. Numerical results show that, generally, despite of some local members shear failure, Yangjindang's structural response does not exceed the limitation according to current standards.

목재의 주성분 중 가장 분해가 어려운 리그닌을 분해하는 균주를 선발하기 위해 산림지역에서 채취한 부후목과 자실체로부터 균을 분리하였다. 리그닌 분해능은 활엽수보다 미생물 분해가 어렵다고 알려진 침엽수인 소나무재에 미생물을 처리하여 Klason 리그닌 정량을 통해 조사하였다. 또한 선발균에 의한 소나무재의 분해과정과 부후정도를 주사전자현미경(Scanning Electron Microscope ; SEM)을 이용해 조사하였다. 선발 균주 중 CJ-6에서 소나무 리그닌의 분해율이 49.48%로 가장 높았으며, 이것은 리그닌 분해 우수 균주로 알려진 Trametes versicolor의 40.58%와 비교해 보았을 때 리그닌 분해력이 더 우수하였다. 균주들 중 리그닌 분해력이 좋게 나타난 2개의 균주를 대상으로 부후에 의한 목재조직의 변화를 관찰하였는데 두 균주의 부후형이 비슷한 경향을 나타내었다. 부후 20일 경과에서는 균사의 침입은 있었으나 아직 목재는 건전한 상태를 유지하고 있었으며, 60일 간의 부후에서는 부후가 어느 정도 진행되어 가도관 벽과 방사조직의 세포벽의 일부가 분해되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 100일간 부후가 진행된 경우에는 부후가 상당히 진행되어 가도관 세포벽 안쪽이 분해가 많이 진행되어 있었으며, 방사조직의 세포벽이 많이 분해되어 있어 세포간의 구별이 어려웠다.

To evaluate the bonding performance of reinforced glulam, the textile type of glass fiber and aramid fiber, and the sheet type of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) and carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) were used as reinforcements. The reinforced glulam was manufactured by inserting reinforcement between the outmost and middle lamination of 5ply glulam. The types of adhesives used in this study were polyvinyl acetate resins (MPU500H, and MPU600H), polyurethane resin and resorcinol resin. The block shear strengths of the textile type in glass fiber reinforced glulam using MPU500H and resorcinol resin were higher than 7.1 N/$mm^2$, and these glulams passed the wood failure requirement of Korean standards (KS). In case of the sheet types, GFRP reinforced glulams using MPU500H, polyurethane resin and resorcinol resin, and CFRP reinforced glulams using MPU500H and polyurethane resin passed the requirement of KS. The textile type of glass fiber reinforced glulam using resorcinol resin after water and boiling water soaking passed the delamination requirement of KS. The only GFRP reinforced glulam using MPU500H after water soaking passed the delamination requirement of KS. We conclude that the bonding properties of adhesive according to reinforcements are one of the prime factors to determine the bonding performance of the reinforced glulam.

As glulam is a woody material, it is necessary to be more careful in a gluing process. It takes 6-7 hours at $40-60^{\circ}C$ to harden PRF resin used in making structural glulam, and about 24 hours at room temperature. In the present process which can not use a press continuously, reducing the hardening time is necessary to increase production. The experiment was done to compare the adhesive properties of PRF resin and MUF resin through bending test, block shear strength test and water soaking test. In comparing the bending strength of prediction MOE is 1.2 times higher that actual MOE. PRF and MUF do not show significant difference in MOE and MOR, and in block shear strength test, such as shear strength and wood failure rate. However, in water soaking and boiling water soaking tests PRF and MUF show the significant difference in delamination rate.

This study was executed to find the applicability of press drying of tree disk by investigating the shrinkage and drying defect and to form appropriate model by comparing the actual moisture content(MC) and internal temperature in respect of drying time with calculated values based computer simulation to which was applied finite difference method. In press drying disk, heating period, constant drying rate period maintained plateau temperature at 100$^{\circ}C$ and falling drying rate period were significantly distinguished. Actual MC and internal temperature were analogous to those calculated at comparing points. Heat transfer model formed by Fourier's law using specific heat of moist wood and conduction coefficient considering fractional volume of each element of wood cell wall, bound water, free water and air showed applicability as basic data to developing heat expansion, shrinkage and drying stress during press drying. Also mass transfer model formed by Fick's diffusion law using water vapor diffusion coefficient showed applicability. Longitudinal shrinkage was developed by pressure of hot press and tangential shrinkage was restrained by hygrothermal recovery. The heart check, surface check and ring failure were occurred differently in species, but V-shaped crack didn't develop.
