For this purpose, test samples were prepared from the eastern beech wood, which was used in an old furniture. Half of the prepared samples were pressed in the hot press at 150 ° C and 100 bar pressure for 45 minutes. Air dry moisture, air dry and oven dry densities, the compression set ratio, the compression set recovery ratio, the bending strength and the modulus of elasticity, the compression strength values of the prepared samples were determined. As a result, the compression strength, modulus of elasticity and tensile strength values of pressed with tangent to annual rings of samples were found to be higher than control samples and pressed with 45 degrees angle to annual rings of samplestrinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessStaypackBeech woodPhysical propertiesmechanical properties.Mechanical properties.Article123123
