Overview

This course is specifically designed for Ohio-licensed engineers to qualify as a "timed and monitored" online course. The course contains an automatic timer that prevents the user from accessing the quiz and earning a certificate of completion until the minimum amount of study time has been met. This achieves the Ohio Board's intent that an online course should be "paced" by the provider. For more information, please see the Ohio state requirements. This course may also be accepted in other states (see the "Board Acceptance" tab above). However, if you are not licensed in Ohio, it is suggested that you purchase the self-paced version of the course.

In Specialty Treatments for Wood , you'll learn ...

The methods and benefits of plasticizing wood
How and why modified wood is manufactured
The process of producing paper-based plastic laminates
The benefits and limitations of heat treating wood

Overview

To meet the Ohio Board's intent that online courses be "paced" by the provider, a timer will be used to record your study time. You will be unable to access the quiz until the required study time of 100 minutes has been met.

Many specialty treatments can be applied to wood to either improve its performance or change its properties. The treatments discussed in this course are those that make permanent changes in the shape of the wood product, improvements in dimensional stability, or improvements in performance through combinations with non-wood resources.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

Explain the principles of plasticizing wood for bending.
Describe methods for bending plywood and other laminated wood members.
Explain the bending of solid wood members.
Identify the general characteristics of bent wood.
Describe the benefits of chemically treating wood to produce modified wood.
Explain the properties of modified wood.
Compare wood heat-treatment methods, benefits, and limitations.
Describe the properties and commercial applications of wood-polymer composites.
Identify the types of paper-based plastic laminates and their commercial applications.

Certificate of Completion

You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 10 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
