Figure 24-30.— Relation of compaction ratio to flakeboard modulus of elasticity. Data 

 points represent single-species panels of sweetgum, hickory, southern red oak, post 

 oak, white oak, sweetbay, white ash, and red maple veneer flakes. Dashed lines 

 indicate the compaction ratio corresponding to an attained average of 800,000 psi 

 MOE. Black tupelo did not follow this correlation. (Drawing after Hse 1975c.)
