The comparison is inadequate; wood contain or can absorb water, a metal no.
Because heat is a big factor in starting and keeping a fire. You have air, and fuel, and the heat is already factored in. The wood that is already there burning helps too because the fact that it is burning means that most of the wood is dry, and dry wood burns much faster than wet or damp wood. Plus, the dry burning wood dries out any new wood that is placed on top of it, making all of the wood dry, which is the same as stacking tinder, as it is already ready to be set ablaze.
Metal do not dry in sunlight
The main cause of wood dry rotting is a brown rot fungi called Serpula lacrymans. These spores get onto wood and slowly eat away at the wood, causing it to slowly rot out.
it is more on liquid because moist attracts more microorganisms than on dry surfaces it is more on liquid because moist attracts more microorganisms than on dry surfaces

They hold very well, better than into wood.
Most paint dries faster on wood.
obviously on wood dumb,it absorbs the liquid in it.
a tone of bricks You should be specific on this question, dry wood, wet wood, also what kind of wood? It does matter, this goes for the metal too. { vgtalotta } [at] { hotmail } [dot] { com }
This depends on the density of the shelving. There are Metal Wire Shelving Units that will be considerably lighter than wooden shelving, but there are also heavy duty shelving units that will be considerably lighter. Determine the maximum amount you want to store on the shelves then find a suitable shelving unit to use.
Dry wood is usually easier, but wood will dry much faster when split. If you have the time to let large sections dry first, it will be easier to split, but it may take a year to dry. Wood that is split and stacked to allow air to circulate will be dry and ready to burn in about 5 months.
A flame can only ignite dry materials. Wet materials, if the spark catches, brings more smoke than flame.
Different types of wood have different coefficients of friction. As dense, hard, wood will tend to be smoother than a porous, soft, wood.
It depends if the wood is damp or dry; if damp, then wood is much better - although still much worse than metals. However, if the wood is dried - oven dry is the technical term - then glass and wood are about the same.
No wood does not expand when its dry
i think metal dries faster because if it gets wet it bounces right off and wood soaks it up but it stills dries faster so i really think they both dry faster.
