Mechanical and physical properties of cement-bonded hornbeam boards. (Standard deviations in parentheses.)

Wood: cement	Density^(a) (Kg/m^3)	MOR^(b) (N/mm^2)	MOE^(b) (N/mm^2)	IB^(a) (N/mm^2)	TS^(a) (%)
1 : 3	1270 (0.18)	12.68 (0.5)	6009.6 (32.1)	0.35 (0.07)	1.75 (0.6)
1 : 4	1280 (0.12)	10.56 (0.8)	7056.4 (199.3)	0.56 (0.04)	0.67 (0.1)
BISON type HZ	1.20	9.0	3000	0.40	1.2–1.8

^(a)Each value represents the mean of twelve replicates.^(b)Each value represents the mean of eight replicates.
