Abstract
The objective of this research is to study the effect
of a convectif traditional drying on eucalyptus wood of the reafforestations
of Sidi Yahia (West of Morocco). The obtained results show that the
measurement of the bow of facing indicates that a drying under load,
preceded by a reconditioning and followed by balancing, makes it possible to
recover an important part of deformations. Moreover, the determination of
the splitting indicator (average and maximum) and their variations show that
the maximum temperature that support this wood is about 60
C.
