CAN3-O188.0-M78

This standard is one of the CAN3-O188 Series of Standards on Particleboard and Waferboard. It describes the test procedures for determining dimensional tolerances, density and moisture content, static bending strength, internal bond strength, hardness, screw-holding strength, linear expansion and nail withdrawal resistance of particleboard and waferboard. Additionally this standard specifies the sampling requirements and describes the conditions under which the test requirements are to be carried. The criteria that the boards must meet are given in CSA standards CAN3-O188.1-M77, *Interior Mat-Formed Wood Particleboard* and CAN3-O188.2-M77, *Waferboard*.
