Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A timber beam is tested using a Charpy impact test and absorbs 25 Joules of energy before breaking. What can you conclude about its suitability for a structural application?

💡 Hint: Compare this value with known benchmarks for timber strength.

Question 2

In a scenario, two different timber types are subjected to impact testing. Timber A absorbs 15 Joules, while Timber B absorbs 40 Joules. Discuss the implications of these results regarding structural integrity.

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of choosing between these values in construction.
