WHAT DOES WOODGRAIN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Wood grain

Grain is the alternating regions of relatively darker and lighter wood resulting from the differing growth parameters occurring in different seasons. The term is used in several ways. Perhaps most important is that in woodworking techniques. In describing the application of a woodworking technique to a given piece of wood, the direction of the technique may be: ▪ with the grain ▪ against the grain ▪ across the grain ▪ end grain Grain alignment must be considered when joining pieces of wood, or designing wooden structures. For example, a stressed span is less likely to fail if tension is applied along the grain, rather than across the grain. Grain direction will also affect the type of warping seen in the finished item. In describing the alignment of the wood in the tree a distinction may be made. Basic grain descriptions and types include: ▪ straight - grain which runs in a single direction, parallel to the axis of the tree ▪ spiral - grain which spirals...
