Proposals for a field experiment to determine the performance of preservative treated hardwoods with particular reference to soft rot
IRG/WP 342
D J Dickinson
It is proposed to treat a series of hardwood stakes in the UK and install them in different sites around the world. The stakes will include 3 reference species common to every site and 2 locally selected species. The hazard of termites should be avoided in order to limit the study to action of micro-organisms.
