Besides its inherent resistance against degrading organisms, the durability of timber is infl uenced by design details and climatic conditions, making it diffi cult to treat wood durability as an absolute value. Durability classifi cation is, therefore, based on comparing performance indicators between the timber in question and a reference timber. These relative values are grouped and related to durability classes, which can refer to a high range of service-lives. The insuffi cient comparability of such durability records has turned out to be a key challenge for service-life prediction. This paper reviewed literature data, based on service-life measures, not masked by a durability classifi cation. It focused on natural durability of timber tested in the fi eld above-ground. Additionally, results from ongoing aboveground durability studies in Europe and Australia are presented and have been used for further analysis. In total, 163 durability recordings from 31 different test sites worldwide based on ten different test methods have been considered for calculation of resistance factors. The datasets were heterogeneous in quality and quantity; the resulting resistance factors suffered from high variation. In conclusion, an open platform for scientifi c exchange is needed to increase the amount of available service-life related data.

Rot fungi are a major problem in the construction sector, and method to study under which moisture and temperature coefficients they grow are therefore of significant interest. Measurements of heat production rate have been made on wood samples with the brown rot fungus Postia placenta at different moisture contents (MCs). The results clearly show the heat production rate (ameasure of respiration rate and fungal activity) is moisture-dependent. For most cases, less heat was produced when the MC was decreased, and more heat was produced when the MC was increased. It was also found that when the MC increased after a dry period, the increase in activity was significantly delayed. However, if the moisture state was then kept constant at a high level, the activity slowly increased, showing that the fungi need time to recover back to the original activity level after drying. Isothermal calorimetry is a measurement technique well suited for the study of the activity of wood-decaying fungi as a function of temperature and moisture content.

Ofte følger det insekter med fyringsveden. Mange synes det er ubehagelig at veden «lever». Heldigvis er 99% av artene helt ufarlige for hus og innbo, men noen få arter bør vi tenke på. Hva kan vi gjøre for å unngå dem?

KlimaTre er et prosjekt i BioNær, hvor Norges Skogeierforbund er prosjekteier og kontraktspartner med Norges forskningsråd. KlimaTre består av tre delprosjekter: DP1 KlimaVerdi. Dokumentere de skogbaserte verdikjedene i Norge sin betydning for klima og verdiskaping. DP2 KlimaModell. Modellering av samlet klimaeffekt for de skogbaserte verdikjedene. DP3 FramTre. Framtidas trekonstruksjoner i et livsløpsperspektiv. Denne rapporten inngår i DP1 KlimaVerdi som omhandler både primærskogbruket, tremekanisk industri og celluloseindustrien. Skog og landskap har i DP1 KlimaVerdi ansvaret for energiforbruk og kostnadstall i primærskogbruket, samt for transport av virke fram til industritomt. I denne rapporten har vi strukturert og analysert de operasjonene som inngår som en del av primærskogbruket, samt transport av tømmer på vei, båt og jernbane. Forsyningskjeden fra skog til industri er hovedfokus i studien, og alle operasjoner i denne kjeden er inkludert, enten råvarene skal benyttes til industri- eller energiformål. Rapporten synliggjør de ulike operasjoner som skogbruket består av med tanke på forbruk av energi og hva det koster å utføre de ulike operasjonene. Operasjonene i skogbruket har vi delt i tre: skogkultur, avvirkning og transport. [...]

Local climate conditions have a major influence on the biological decomposition of wood. To examine the influence of different temperature regimes on wood decay caused by the brown rot fungus Postia placenta in wood with differing natural durability, sapwood (sW) and heartwood (hW) of Scots pine, inoculated mini-blocks were incubated for up to 10 weeks at temperatures conducive or above optimal to wood decay. We profiled mass loss (ML) and wood composition, and accompanying changes in wood colonization and transcript level regulation of fungal candidate genes. The suppressive effect of suboptimal temperature on wood decay caused by P. placenta appeared more pronounced in Scots pine hW with increased durability than in sW with low decay resistance. The differences between sW and hW were particularly pronounced for cultures incubated at 30°C: unlike sW, hW showed no ML, poor substrate colonization and marker gene transcript level profiles indicating a starvation situation. As brown rot fungi show considerable species-specific variation in temperature optima and ability to mineralize components that contribute to wood durability, interactions between these factors will continue to shape the fungal communities associated to wood in service.
