VI. Прочитайте и письменно переведите на русский язык текст TIMBER

1. Timber is the most ancient structural material which was used by the primitive man for building a hut protecting him from stormy weather and wild animals. It is daily growing in importance. Wood is light, easy to work and its mechanical properties are good. Wood possesses a comparatively high strength combined with a small volume weight, elasticity and low heat conductivity. Under favourable service conditions wood remains intact during long periods of time (several hundred years).

2. Timber is a name applied to the cut material derived from trees. The moisture content of timber is important, since the strength of timber decreases as the moisture content rises. Caution must therefore be used when designing timber construction on site, and a maximum safe working stress of 5 N/mm2 is advised under these conditions.

3. Wood is very widely used in the building field, owing to the above indicated qualities and a comparatively low cost. Timber used for building purposes is divided into two groups: softwoods and hardwoods. At present an enormous amount of timber is employed for a vast number of purposes. Hardwoods are chiefly used for decorative purposes, as for panelling, veneering in furniture, and some of them are selected for structural use because of their high strength and durability. In modern construction it is often used for window and door frames, flooring, fences and gates, wallplates, for temporary buildings and unpainted internal woodwork.
