TIMBER

Timber is one of the most important materials used in all branches of industry, manufacture and engineering. Iron is looked on as the most useful of metals. Wood is not a metal, but in its usefulness it may be placed on a level with iron, which it replaces in many cases. It serves so many purposes that it is possible to speak about all of them.

Most of the houses in which we live are partly built of timber: they all have wooden floors, wooden doors and wooden window frames. The floor space is divided into rooms by wooden partitions.

Various things made of wood are in everyday use. We sit at wooden tables, on wooden chairs. Our books are kept in book cases or on shelves made of wood. We use pencils for writing, matches for lighting a fire: we write on paper manufactured from wood or on wooden blackboards which are found in every classroom.

Artificial textiles are manufactured from cellulose, a sub­stance produced from the woody fiber of plants. Cellulose is much worked at and experimented upon in the laboratories of the research institutes. Many things composed of cellulose are used in diffe­rent branches of industry. Several medicines are obtained from different trees whose medicinal nature is widely known to modern chemists. In short, wood is found in endless variety of forms.

Timber was widely used for construction purposes and home needs in prehistoric times. We are told by archaeologists that things made of wood were used over 3,500 years ago. Timber was referred to as the best structural material by the Greeks and Romans, who applied it for construction purposes and whose engi­neering skill is often spoken about in special literature.

A scientific study of the properties and qualities of wood however was started only at the beginning of the 18th century. The first researches were devoted to the study of the strength of timber. They were followed by further research work. As a result of this research work, a considerable amount of data was collected giving an idea of the properties of different kinds of timber. Much attention was paid to the conditions of the growth of the tree, which helped to establish the connection between the mecha­nical properties and the structure of timber.

The scientific study of timber, started in the 18th century, is now fully developed. The manufacture of paper and artificial textiles, the production of synthetic rubber are the achievements of modern research work.

Timber grows in importance from day to day. New uses of tim­ber will be made popular in the nearest future. Boards will be made of ground-up wood; sawdust, mixed with mineral matter will be formed into a hard strong material applicable for many purposes.
