Mechanical testing of wood-related structures and construction products

RISE tests strength- and deformation properties of wood-related structures and construction products.

In the construction-area of wooden houses, there is a constant development of products and solutions. To find out if calculated and assumed bearing capacity or effect is achieved in practice, RISE can test the product or solution.

RISE has extensive experience from testing and calculations of everything from full-scale building elements to individual screws and nodes. RISE is an accredited laboratory according to ISO 17025 and Notified body by Swedac. In many areas we also educate the industry and performe surveillance inspections regarding certified products (certification is sought from RISE Certification).

Business areas

Areas we operate within and the most common products and tests:

  • Fasteners: Wood screws, nails, nail plates, joints
  • Boards: Plywood, chipboard, plaster boards, composite boards
  • Timber: Strength grading, trade grading, visual grading, education
  • Glulam: Delamination, Strength
  • Finger jointed wood: Glue, joint strength
  • Wooden posts: Impregnation, condition assessment, strength
  • Roof trusses: Strength, damage investigation, education
  • Dimensional stability: Moisture and temperature dependent movements in materials
  • Hardness testing: Parquet, Countertops, Brinell testing, Janka
  • Impregnated wood: Penetration, absorption, wood preservatives
  • Floor constructions: Installation floor, heated floor, load-bearing floor
  • Wall constructions: Testing stability / racking and soft body impact
