Abstract
A relation describing the shrinkage properties of a fibre-composite is applied to a multilayered thin-walled model of wood. With the theory developed it is possible to specify shrinkage with respect to moisture content, as well as with factors involved in cell-wall geometry and composition. However, until more is known of the properties of the water-reactive matrix component of the composite it is only practicable to describe shrinkage with respect to the geometrical and compositional factors at the moisture-content of the stress free state.
