This appendix is part of Sustainable Timber Tasmania (STT)-funded project that aimed to determine the characteristic material properties of appearance quality boards recovered from Tasmania’s full rotation thinned and pruned Shining gum (Eucalyptus nitens) plantations. It reports on the structural testing and assessment of boards sawn from three coupe in late 2020. Table 1 lists the coupes, their harvest age and the batch identifiers used for each.This report focuses on determining the characteristic unseasoned and seasoned Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) or stiffness, and Modulus of Rupture (MOR) or bending strength of the population and batch groups. Where appropriate, the results of parallel projects are also included.
