Abstract
The purpose of the present work was to investigate whether the drying method itself affects strength of wood apart from fibre direction, density, temperature in the wood, moisture content and with which angle the microfibril is placed in the middle layer at the secondary cell wall S2. The drying methods compared were microwave drying and conventional air-circulation drying, and the species tested was Norway spruce. The result shows that it is not possible to demonstrate any difference between the two drying methods with respect to the strength of the wood. What affects wood strength are such variables as moisture content, number of annual rings and the density properties weight, width and
thickness
