Hi all,
I am currently working on panel stress analysis and am seeking empirical data for Okoume.
More specifically, I am looking for the minimum bend radius for each thickness commonly used. I am only
interested in radii for cold bending ( not soaked or steamed ). I found some general numbers here,
http://www2.tech.purdue.edu/at/courses/at308/Technical_Links/Ac43-13-1B/CH1_4b.pdf
But, to be thorough, I am still looking for numbers specific to Okoume (and other marine ply).
Eventually I will probably just get out to the garage and start breaking some wood myself...
Can anyone point me in a good direction.
Thanks,
