Abstract:Knots in wooden structures are common natural features in wood that result from where branches once joined the trunk of a tree. While they can add to the aesthetic appeal of wood, knots are often considered structural defects in construction because they can significantly affect the mechanical properties of wood. If knots are present in structural members, they cannot be ignored. Identifying the presence of knots and finding the corresponding defected area of a structural member is important to be able to rein… Show more
