Impregnation of rubber wood has been carried out under different conditions by using styrene as grafting monomer and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) as crosslinker. Properties such as dimensional stability‚ water absorption‚ hardness‚ tensile strength‚ flexural strength‚ etc of the impregnated wood have been checked and found to be improved by incorporation of GMA as the crosslinker with styrene. The polymerimpregnated wood has also been characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and DSC. Keywords. 1. Wood;

Calculations Relevance to Geotechnics Soil Description and Conclusion References Introduction Shear strength is the property that enables a material to remain in equilibrium when its surface is not level. (Smith‚ 2006) The direct shear test is used to determine the shear strength of soils on a predetermined failure surface. This test is used to measure the shearing resistance‚ undrained shear strength‚ and dilative and contractive tendencies in soils. (Fratta et al‚ 2007) The results can then be used
