The influence of the change of moisture content of timber on its physical-mechanical properties
Dziadková, Aneta ; Anton, Ondřej (referee) ; Heřmánková, Věra (advisor)
This bachelor thesis determines mechanical and physical properties of timber in different state of water absorption. Three sets of samples will be used to define their density, dimensional and volume swelling ratio, compressive strength and bending tensile strength. As an evaluation, properties obtained from testing will be graphically illustrated depending on moisture content.

Srovnání přirozené trvanlivosti a vybraných vlhkostních vlastností dřeva subfosilního dubu s dřevem dubu recentního
Nevrlý, Ondřej
This work should be used to determine differences between the properties of recent subfossil and oak wood. For this work, there are available samples of four historical periods. The first period is the present, and therefore, these data should be consistent with the literature and serve as well as verifying the accuracy of the procedure and methodology for the acquisition of data. Then there are available subfossil oak samples from three periods, 1131-804 BC., 208 BC. - 137 and after the year 1018th. It was investigated experimentally durability of wood. Samples were subjected to the test of durability against wood--destroying fungi according to EN 113. Used decaying fungi are Trametes versicolor, Laetiporus sulphureus and Poria placenta. Further samples were devided into durability classes according to EN 350--1. It was found that subfossil oak wood resistance to wood--destroying fungi decreased. Furthermore there was investigated selected moisture characteristics and also some other physical properties of oak. Oak wood contains a high amount of tannins, which gives it extremely high durability and resistance. So now we are finding an oak tree trunks which are up to 8,500 years old.
