Abstract
The aim of this research is to determine the fiber saturation point of wood from Fagus moesiaca,
Quercus sessilis, Quercus conferta, Robinia pseudoacacia, Pinus nigra, Pinus silvestris, Abies alba,
Picea excelsa, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Cupressus arizonica, Sequoiadendron giganteum, Pinus
strobus and Larix decidua, as a contribution to the utilization of wood.
The material used for investigation was collected from twenty-eight methodologically selected
localities.
The obtained average values of fiber saturation point are based on wood density and volume
shrinkage, in accordance with the standard for wood investigation.
The results from investigation of fiber saturation point of wood from autochthonous species are
within the limits of the up to now empirical and scientific knowledge. The obtained values for the
allochthonous species that are subject of our investigation, can significantly impact on further
introduction.
