gq: The greatest strength increase due to drying is in the ultimate crushing strength, and strength at elastic limit in endwise compression; these are followed by the modulus of rupture, and stress at elastic limit in cross-bending, while the modulus of elasticity is least affected.
Question: What type of "ultimate" strength is one of the two types increased the most by drying wood? Question: Is strength at elastic limit in endwise compression or stress at elastic limit in cross-bending increased more by drying wood? Question: Is the strength of the modulus of rupture or elasticity increased more when wood is dried? Question: What property of wood is least affected by drying?
