the weights of plywood

koraykoru

Table that includes the weights of plywood made from POPLAR, BEECH, BIRCH, and PINE trees. The dimensions are 220x170 cm, and the thicknesses are 4,6,8,10,12,15,18,21,25,30 mm. first I need to figure out how to calculate the weight for each type and thickness.


Wait, to calculate weight, I need the density of each wood type. The user didn't provide densities, so I'll have to look up typical densities for these woods. Let me recall: Kavak is poplar, kayın is beech, hu is probably hornbeam (since "huş" is birch, but "hu" might be a typo or different), and çam is pine.


Poplar (kavak) has a density around 400-500 kg/m³. Beech (kayın) is denser, about 700-800 kg/m³. Hornbeam (hu) is even denser, maybe 800-850 kg/m³. Pine (çam) is lighter, around 500-600 kg/m³. I'll take the average of these ranges for calculation. Let me note down:


- Kavak (Poplar): 450 kg/m³

- Kayın (Beech): 750 kg/m³

- HuŞ (Hornbeam): 820 kg/m³

- Çam (Pine): 550 kg/m³


Next, the formula for weight. Weight = Volume × Density. Volume is area × thickness. The dimensions are 220 cm x 170 cm, which is 2.2 m x 1.7 m. So area is 2.2*1.7 = 3.74 m². Thickness is in mm, so convert to meters by dividing by 1000.


For each thickness, say 4 mm: 4/1000 = 0.004 m. Volume = 3.74 0.004 = 0.01496 m³. Then multiply by density to get weight in kg. For example, Kavak at 4mm: 0.01496 450 ≈ 6.732 kg. Let me check that calculation again. 3.74 0.004 = 0.01496 m³. 0.01496 450 = 6.732 kg. Yeah, that's right.


But wait, plywood might have adhesive layers, which can add some weight. However, the user didn't mention accounting for that, so maybe just use raw wood density. Also, sometimes plywood density is given as adjusted, but since the user specified the type of wood, using raw densities is appropriate here.


I should create a table with each wood type as rows and thicknesses as columns. The user wants the table to include all the given thicknesses. Let me list the thicknesses: 4,6,8,10,12,15,18,21,25,30 mm. So 10 thickness values. The woods are four types.


Calculating each cell: For each wood, calculate weight for each thickness. Let me do a sample calculation for each wood at 4mm:


Kavak: 3.74 0.004 450 = 3.74*0.004=0.01496*450=6.732 kg


Kayın: 3.74*0.004*750 = 0.01496*750=11.22 kg


Hu: 0.01496*820=12.2672 kg


Çam: 0.01496*550=8.228 kg


Then repeat for each thickness. For example, 6mm:


Thickness 6mm = 0.006 m


Volume: 3.74*0.006=0.02244 m³


Kavak: 0.02244*450=10.098 kg


Kayın: 0.02244*750=16.83 kg


Hu: 0.02244*820=18.4008 kg


Çam: 0.02244*550=12.342 kg


And so on for each thickness. This is a lot of calculations, but systematic. Maybe I can use Excel or a calculator to speed it up, but since I'm doing it manually, I need to be careful.


Wait, the user specified the dimensions as 220x170. I assumed cm, but maybe they meant mm? Wait, 220x170 cm is a standard sheet size? Typically, plywood sheets are 1220x2440 mm or similar, but the user specified 220x170. If it's cm, that's 2.2m x 1.7m. If it's mm, that's 0.22m x 0.17m. But 220x170 cm is a very large sheet, but possible. Let me confirm: 220 cm is 2.2 meters, 170 cm is 1.7 meters. So area 3.74 m² as before.


Alternatively, if it's 220mm x170mm, which is 0.22m x0.17m, area 0.0374 m². That would be much smaller, and the weights would be much less. But the user said "kontrplakları" which are plywood sheets. Standard sheet sizes are larger, like 1.2m x2.4m. Maybe the user made a typo. But the user wrote 220x170 ebatlarındaki, which could be in cm or mm. But in Turkey, plywood sheets are often in sizes like 1220x2440 mm, which is 122cm x244cm. But the user's size is 220x170. Let me check if 220x170 cm is a common size. Maybe not, but perhaps it's a custom size. Alternatively, maybe it's 2200x1700 mm, which would be 2.2m x1.7m. That seems plausible. So I'll proceed with 2.2m x1.7m, area 3.74 m².


Proceeding with that, the calculations as before. Let me create the table. Columns would be the thicknesses, rows the wood types. Each cell has the weight in kg.


I should round the weights to two decimal places for clarity. Let me proceed to calculate each thickness:

Çam: 0.1122*550=61.71 →61.71 kg


Now, compiling all these into a table. The table should have columns for each thickness and rows for each wood type. I'll format it with headers and rows. Since the user wants it in Turkish, the wood names are already in Turkish. The units are in millimeters and kilograms.


I should also mention that the densities used are approximate and that actual weights may vary based on moisture content, adhesive, etc., but the user didn't ask for that, so maybe just provide the table with a note that densities are approximate.


Putting it all together now.

İşte 220 cm x 170 cm (2.2 m x 1.7 m) ebatlarındaki kavak, kayın, huş ve çam kontrplakların kalınlıklarına göre ağırlık tablosu. Hesaplamalar için ortalama yoğunluklar kullanılmıştır (kavak: 450 kg/m³, kayın: 750 kg/m³, huş: 820 kg/m³, çam: 550 kg/m³). Ağırlıklar kilogram (kg) cinsindendir ve yaklaşık değerlerdir.
