摘要

Casuarina Equisetifolia is one of the largest species of the genus Casuarina, attaining a height of 20-35 m and diameter of 0.5- 1.5 m. The tree was introduced in Egypt in the first part of the 20th century and has been used extensively as a wind breaker. Its wood is mainly used as fire wood and its use in other products has remained fairly limited. Casuarina Equisetifolia yield of wood is 40-120 tons per hectare per year and about 40 tons per hectare per year of litter and cones in 10 years. One of the reasons behind its restricted use in other products is the extremely limited amount of data about its physical and mechanical properties. This paper presents the results from a yearlong test program on the Egyptian Casuarina Equisetifolia. The main goal was to determine and classify the mechanical and physical properties of Casuarina Wood and compare with other commercially important wood. Physical properties tests for the Moisture Content, Shrinkage in volume, Specific gravity were performed. Mechanical properties tested included Toughness, Hardness, Static Bending, Compression (perpendicular & parallel), Tension (perpendicular & parallel), Cleavage and, Nail Withdrawal. It is shown that the wood has superior mechanical properties suggesting its potential use in many applications. Difficulties in drying and proper cutting of the wood are cited as the most important challenges for the commercial use of Casuarina Equisetifolia on a commercial scale. In addition, recommendations about methods of wood production are provided.
