Abstract :In this study, it was aimed to determine the thermal conductivity coefficient values of laminated wood materials produced with different layer orientation, according to wood species and adhesive type. For this purpose, 5-layers plywood, laminated veneer lumber insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(LVL);, Kerto-Q-LVL and special type plywood insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Q-plywood);, which formed three rotary cut veneers in the inner layer parallel to each other, perpendicular to the outer layers, panels were produced. In the production of the panels, poplar insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Populus deltoides);, Scots pine insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Pinus sylvestris L.); and spruce insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Picea orientalis L.); were used as a wood species and was used urea formaldehyde insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(UF); and phenol formaldehyde insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PF); as adhesive types. The thermal conductivity coefficient measurements of the panels were carried out according to the ASTM C 518 standard. As a results of the study, the highest thermal conductivity coefficient value was obtained from Q-LVL panels produced using UF adhesive from spruce veneers. The lowest thermal conductivity values were obtained from plywood produced using PF adhesive from spruce veneers.
