Abstract

Recently, there are depleting supplies of hardwood for furniture industry.
Wood jointing system might be applied to solve this situation. The objectives
of this study are to determine the bending properties of finger jointed Mahang
Gajah (Macaranga gigantae) at different portions (top, middle, and bottom)
and at different finger orientations (vertical and horizontal). In this study,
Mahang Gajah was used as a raw material. It was harvested from Hutan
Pembelajaran UiTM, Cawangan Pahang. From the study, it shows that for
different portions, it is highly significant difference for Modulus of Elasticity
(MOE) but no significant difference for Modulus of Rupture (MOR). For
different finger orientations, both MOE and MOR are highly significant.
Meanwhile for portion interaction with finger orientation, both MOE and MOR
are not significant. It can be conclude that Mahang Gajah is a suitable
material for finger jointing and can be a new potential source for furniture
industry.
