Effect of brown rot degradation on mass loss and compressive strength of Chinese poplar (Populus simonii)

Abstract: The wood of poplar species is generally perceived as susceptible to decay, however, poplar is still widely used as columns in traditional Chinese buildings. Understanding how decay affects the compressive properties of this material will help engineers better assess wood condition during r...
