Synopsis
Excerpt from Information for Inspectors of Airplane Wood: Prepared at the Forest Products Laboratory, Forest Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture
The term strength, in its more restricted sense, is the ability to resist stress of a single kind, or the stresses developed in one kind of a constructional member, as strength in shear, strength in compression, strength as a beam, strength as a column. Used in this way, the term is specific and allows no chance of confusion.
