Ulin Wood Immersion Effects on Durability by Hidayatus Sadri is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses a study on the effect of immersion on the strength and durability of Ulin wood (Eusideroxylon zwageri) used for Tonggak Tuo pillars in Rumah Gadang houses in West Sumatra. The study tested the compressive strength and durability of immersed vs non-immersed Ulin wood samples. The results showed that immersed wood samples had lower compressive strength but higher durability, with less weight loss, compared to non-immersed samples. Thus, the traditional method of immersing wood in ponds
