Hi folks. Been scratching my head a bit pondering the last bit of input Del was kind enough to provide and wanted to make sure I understood one particular point clearly. Dont know how else to put it so I will ask it in the following manner.. If you take an unribbed panel, and dry it out to the extremes of 4% MC, and then constrain its dimensions at that so that it is not allowed to expand either outwards, or upwards or in any fashion and bring the MC up to 13 % the panel will get pretty severely compressed... yes ?... ok.. If you allow this to sit over enough time that if in releasing the constraints the panel simply retains the dimensions it had under constrainment.... then what happens to the size of this panel if you dry it down to 4 % again ?
