Customer Grushed By Foddlft

A customer measuring lumber on a forklift at McEwen Lumber Co.. Jacksonville, Fl., was seriously injured when the vehicle allegedly slipped into gear.

On April 8, an employee brought a stack of lumber on a forklift to show a customer in the warehouse. As Ernest R. Golden, 44, stood in front of the lift measuring the wood, "the forklift jumped into gear and pinned him against a stack of lumber," according to a police report.

After treatment and a week's stay at the hospital, Golden was released to recuperate at home, according to his wife.

Englneered Panel

Demo House

Engineered panel products have many uses as "the house that Structurwood built," a Weyerhaeuser project, readily shows. Designed to demonstrate the unique properties and technical applications of the engineered strand product, the replica of the rough structural frame of a house used Structurwood in everything from the flooring system and walls to the roof and supporting beams.

Structurwood panels are produced by fabricating thin, precisely machined strands which are oriented cross-directionally. Pan- els are then bonded with a marine-grade, liquid phenolic resin that resists moisture. Manufacturing facilities for the product are located in Elkin, N.C., and Grayling, Mi.

"Structurwood is significantly stiffer, flatter and more durable than other structural panels," says Bill Lund, director of marketing communication for engineered strand products.

Tests performed by Weyerhaeuser's R&D team proved that unlike plywood, it will not warp, buckle or delaminate, even under extreme weather conditions. The product is uniform in consistency, l00o/o usable and free of conventional flaws such as core voids and knot holes.

Structurwood products used in the demonstration house included the flooring system of l/4" underlayment and Sturd-I-Floor; medium density overlay; sanded Structurwood; fire retardant Structurwood; performance rated sheathing, hardboard faced; cedar classic; foam sandwich panel; Ibeams, and garage liner.
