Usability of fractometer for the purpose of a practical preliminary assessment tool for wood density of Pinus brutia

The fractometer is a device that breaks increment cores to measure fracture strength. The advantages of the device are that it is relatively fast, easy to use in the field, and it can perform direct strength measurements on increment cores. The main purpose of the study was to evaluate the usabilit...
