R,C&S question JD

[Richard Brekne]

Been here done that with you before.  I suggest you re-read yourself, 
separate your P's from your Q's and stop dodging questions. You've 
directly contradicted yourself three times now. And below is the 
chronical. First its meaningless.. .then there is a direct relationship, 
then its meaningless again. Obviously we are at a familiar impasse so 
for my part the issue is closed and clear. Grin... to say that percent 
of residual crown at string up in a new board is meaningless.... I mean 
really.

    Percent of residual crown is meaningless.  Read through the various
    posts gain.  It should be clear.

        So let me get this straight... You are stating outright, an RC &
        S board that in unloaded state has known values for rib
        dimensions andradii and  panel compression of basically zipp
        diddly at glue up  MC.... that in this state... the application
        of a known degree of downward stress        (derived from
        residual crown and the above already knowns) has no direct 
        relationship on how much panel compression results ?

            No, I'm not stating that.

                I dont see the relevance to the question about how much
                compression gets imparted into the panel when a given
                RC&S board gets subjected to enough downbearing to
                reduce its crown to 25 % (or any given amount for that
                matter)of its original height....which is the subject
                matter of the last few posts on this thread.

                Cheers Ric B  

                            I can see that you don't.  Percent is a
                meaningless measure of compression in this case.
