Abstract

Non-destructive tests today play a vital role in human life. Non-destructive evaluation technology is widely used in industries, especially wood based industries and wood based products and has led to advances in Strength grading lumber, determine the disadvantages of wooden materials, Inspection of timber and wooden structures. The purpose of this research was to estimate the flexural strength of dynamic tests and compare them with the results of static standard tests in two Forest Pine species (Pinus sylvestris) and Rush (Fagus orientalis). The results of the comparison of the estimation of the modulus of elasticity and the estimated modulus of rupture by a non-destructive free vibration method in a free supported beam with similar results from the static test showed a very good correlation So, according to calculations done by applying a safety coefficient of 18% for beech species and 11% for pine species, a non-destructive vibration test can be substituted by a static destructive standard test for estimating the factors mentioned in these two species.
