Indonesia ABSTRACT Keywords: Wood Quaility Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV) Water content In general, the building evaluation requires a sample from the building being tested. However, this cannot be done in cultural heritage buildings such as Masjid Gedhe Mataram. Because of that reason, an Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity test (UPV) is applied. This test aims to determine the strength of the wood quality due to the influence of its water content using the ultrasonic pulse velocity direct method. In the UPV test, the results are in the form of wave propagation which is influenced by several factors such as the type and the water content of the wood. There were 3 types of tested wood, 9 specimens each. The types of tested wood were kruing (KR), sengon (S), and teak wood (JTB). The water content was set at 12%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%. The results showed a strong correlation between MoE and MoEd values of kruing wood with an R2 value of 0. 8405, a weak correlation of sengon wood with an R2 value of 0. 31, and a strong correlation of teak wood with an R2 value of 0. The differences in wood quality based on modulus of elasticity between bending testing and UPV were 0. 9 - 4. 43% for kruing wood, 3. - 23. 4% for sengon wood, and 3. 4 - 33% for teak wood.

Introduction Wood has been used as building material since ancient This can be observed that so many cultural heritage buildings built in wood as the main material such as Masjid Gedhe Mataram. Until now Masjid Gedhe Mataram is still used as it should be. However, a building should be evaluated to assess its Considering the main material used in Masjid Gedhe Mataram is wood, there are some items could be used to assess the wood quality of the building. One of the most important factor of wood is the water content, the higher the wood water content the weaker the tested wood . Generally to conduct such test needs samples from the building. However this can not be done for the cultural heritage buildings. To solve this problem, it needs another approach as an alternative, such as Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity test, a test being able to test the wood mechanical propertis without damaging the tested objects . Non-destructive test is used to detect the failure of an object when it is being constructed or after it is used. *Corresponding author. E-mail: darmono@uny. https://dx. org/10. 21831/inersia. Received May 16th, 2023. Revised May 28th, 2023. Accepted May 30th 2023 Available online May 31st, 2023 Some methods being used are ultrasonic, radiography, magnetic particle, eddy current, dye penetrant, and visual methods. This assessment is depended on the non-destructive test technique to prepare accurate information of characteristic, capability or condition of the material. The researcher also argues that nondestructive test for wood is very different when compared to homogenous and isotropic materials such as metal, glass, plastic, and ceramic, because the nonwood materials have known mechanical properties and have been strictly controlled during manufacturing process . For such materials, non-destructive test technique is only used to detect the existence of discontinuities, voids, and inclusions. Non-destrucite test technique for wood, however, is used to measure the appearing irregularities because of natural factors. The results of UPV test are wave propagation speed and MoEd score of the wood. Beside the non-destructive test, the destructive test was also conducted as the flexural strengthtest, to compare with the UPV test. This study aims to analyse the wood INERSIA. Vol. No. May 2023 Darmono, et al. strength quality affected by the wood water content with the UPV approach. There were three wood types tested in this test, namely kruing, sengon, and teak woods. Water content test Wood water content is the amount of water existing in wood expressed in percentage of dry weight of its furnace . Therefore before being tested, the tested wood should be dried to be in furnace dry condition (Figure . After the wood weight in the furnace dry condition is obtained, a wood weight plan is then established for the water contents of 12%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%, can be observed on Table 1 to Table 3. The used of water content based on a testing have been conducted by . After a weight plan being set, the wood is soaked in water until a planned weight is obtained Figure 3. To calculate the wood water content applys this equation formula . Materials and Method Materials and equipments This study tested 3 wood types, namely kruing (KR), sengon (S), and teak woods (JTB). There were 9 specimens for each of the wood types, so the total specimens were 27. The dimension of the specimens was 5 cm x 5 cm x 76 cm . The equipments used in this tudy were the Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV) and the Universal Testing Machine (UTM). Testing Scheme In order to make the implementation of the research more focused. a research flow chart is made as Figure 1. MC%= A-B where MC is wood water content.

Based on the MoE value of the jati wood, there was a quality decrease, at the beginning the quality code of E8 decreased to E5. Based on the MoE value of the sengon wood, the tested value was too low to be included in the existing quality codes. Based on the MoE value, the kruing wood experienced the quality decrease from E12 wuality code to E5. Correlation between MoE value and MoEd value is directly proportional, shown in the scatter plot graph that tends to tilt to the right. The MoE value for kruing wood compared to the converted MoEd value was 0. 9 Ae 4. The MoE value for sengon wood compared to the converted MoEd value was 3. 23 Ae 23. The MoE value for teak wood compared to the converted MoEd value 4 Ae 33%. The influence of water content on the MoEd value of Kruing wood decreases of -21 Ae 47. 13%, for Sengon woof of -21 Ae 47. 13%, and for Teak wood of -100 Ae 49.
