Popis: An IML-RESI PD 400 drilling tool and a standard spade drill bit were used to find the correlations of drilling and feeding resistance with the modulus of elasticity in static bending and density of wood. In total, 1575 drillings at 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 m/min feed rates were made in specimens of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), English oak (Quercus robur L.) and common lime (Tilia europaea L.), which were oven-dried, conditioned at 20 °C/65% RH and 20 °C/95% RH and vacuum-impregnated with water. The feed rate (feed rate per major cutting edge or uncut chip thickness) had a significant impact on the prediction of density and modulus of elasticity through drilling resistance measurements and should be considered for comparison of properties and internal conditions of wood. Because of stronger correlation between drilling resistance and tested wood properties compared to feeding resistance, drilling resistance is recommended for density and MOE prediction of sound wood. Moisture content had no significant impact on the modulus of elasticity prediction by the drilling resistance measurements, while density can be predicted by linear models for two stages of moisture content variation, below and above fibre saturation.
