Abstract

The wood of the yew (Taxus baccata L.) has long been known for its toughness and its strength, although only few scientifically proven reference values for the individual mechanical properties of this wood species exist. In this work selected elastomechanic properties of yew wood and were investigated and compared with those of spruce wood (Picea abies (L.) Karsten), showing values for yew which were conspicuously higher than those of spruce.
