Abstract

This paper presents the results of FONDEF Project D9712006 developed at Bío-Bío University (Chile). The objetive of the study was to develop multiple regression models to estimate mechanical properties of Pinus radiata D. Don wood taking into account physical properpies, wood type (juvenile and adult wood) and different wood source (regions). The models developed allow to obtain good estimates of the mechanical propierties. Parallel hardness, perpendicular hardness, MOR, MOE and maximum stress in parallel compression presented the highest determining coefficients, being 0.82; 0.84; 0.80; 0.70 and 0.70, respectively.
