Yellow Poplar from late 1800's - Wood Properties
(OP)
Has anyone ever designed with yellow poplar that dates from the late 1800's? I can start with the values from the NDS, but wonder what I might expect from old forest growth if I had the material tested. TIA.

You might consider giving the testing group you have in mind a call and discuss with them, they would probably have a better ballpark estimate than those of us on this forum.

As EOR's we should take the responsibility to design our structures to support the components we allow in our design per that industry standards.
