Abstract Eucalyptus is a major fast-grown species in South China, which has the
potential for producing structural wood products such as cross-laminated timber
(CLT). Aspect ratio (board width vs. board thickness) of eucalyptus lumbers is
small due to the small diameter of fast-grown eucalyptus wood. To evaluate its
rolling shear modulus and strength for potential CLT applications, three-layer
hybrid CLT shear block specimens with different aspect ratios (2,4,6), were tested
by planar shear test method. Digital image correlation (DIC) was employed to
measure the rolling shear strain distribution and development during the planar
shear tests. The mean… More >
