Original Abstract

The aim of the experiment was to determine the durability of wood based board materials against wood-rot fungi (Serpula lacrymans) effect. The particle boards, oriented strands boards and plywood as the testing materials were chosen. The spruce solid wood as the reference testing material was selected due to the fact that is most common timber species in the Central European region. The testing samples were exposed to wood-rot fungi and in the individual time periods the weight loss (declaring the deterioration process) and mechanical properties (static bending strength and tensile strength perpendicular to the plane of the board) was investigated. It was found that the deterioration of board materials in a very small weight decreases (up to 1.0%) leads to a significant decrease of their strength properties.
