RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Wood is a material that for years has been used by man for a variety of purposes, particularly in rural and civil constructions and furniture industry. The possibility of shortages of some wood species, the characterization of other unfamiliar species is an alternative source for use in civil and rural construction. This study aimed to determine, with the aid of Brazilian standard NBR 7190, physical and mechanical properties of Castelo (Calycophyllum multiflorum) wood specie. Twelve determinations were obtained by property, totaling 204 experimental values. In the characterization of wood, regression models were used to estimate the values of timber strength and stiffness as a function of apparent density, being density the physical property more simple to be obtained. The results of mechanical properties showed consistent with the performance of other species used in construction, which highlights the potential use of the Castelo wood in structural design. Regression models, apparent density was considered significant in the estimation of only 4 among the 14 properties for wood strength and stiffness.
