High <br /> slumber needed so people don' t <br /> fall through decks, <br /> Modulus of Elasticity 300,000 psi Min Stiffneas . High number required <br /> to span similar distances to <br /> real wood with similar <br /> deflections under a given load. <br /> Shoar Parallel to 600 psi Min. This property prevents <br /> Length TriMax from splitting like wood <br /> tends to do . <br /> Tension Parallel to 900 psi Min. This property gives <br /> Length TriMax superior strength when it <br /> is used in tension. <br /> Friction Coefficient Wet/Dry: >0. 20 Tr3Max is similar to <br /> ASTM D-2394 wood in its. coefficient of <br /> friction. . <br /> • <br /> ASTM D-143 & D-198 test methods These methods should be used on <br /> whole pieces of lumber to give <br /> "real world" test results for <br /> both MOR and MOO. These are the <br /> eame testa that are used in wood <br /> testing. <br /> Abrasion Reeietanoe Wear Loss: <3 ,0 Cu,In. TriMax has about 20 <br /> ASTM D-3702 @ Duration: 100 Hours times the abrasion • <br /> resistance of wood. <br /> '1riMRx"Lumber <br /> 2076 FIFTH AVENUE • RONKONKOMA, NY 11779 . 516-471-7777 • FAX 471.7862 <br />
