Chapter 10, Problem 10.24QP

A wood specimen was prepared with actual dimensions of 1 in. × 1 in. × 6 in. and grain parallel to its length. Displacement was measured over a 4 in. gauge length. The specimen was subjected to compression parallel to the grain to failure. The load-deformation results are as shown in Table P10.24.
