Abstract
Extensive bending creep experiments were made to measure the viscoelastic and mechano-sorptive properties of pine wood. It is observed that under constant, similar to ordinary indoor environment, creep is linearly related to the loads when the loads are below 30% of the ultimate strength, and the relation becomes nonlinear when the loads are higher. Wood of small elastic modulus creeps more than that of large elastic modulus under the same load. The mechano-sorptive effect is stronger for heavily loaded wood than that for lightly loaded. It is stronger for wood with lower elastic modulus and vice versa. The mechano-sorptive effect is negligibly small at low moisture content and it gets very large at high moisture content (...)
