Star Shakes ShakesShakes are separation of the fibres along the grain developed in the standing tree, in felling or in seasoning. They are caused by the development of high internal stresses probably caused by the maturity of the tree. The shake is the result of stress relief and in the first place results in a single longitudal crack from the heart and through the diameter of the tree.As the stress increases a second relief crack takes form at right angles to the first and is shown as a double heart shake.Further cracks are known as star shakes and show the familiar pattern shown.
Radial shakes in timber are cracks that occur along the radius of a log or piece of wood, typically originating from the center and extending outward. These shakes can result from various factors, including drying stresses as the wood shrinks during the drying process, or from natural growth patterns in the tree. They can affect the structural integrity and aesthetic value of the timber, making it important for lumber producers to monitor and manage their occurrence. Proper drying techniques can help minimize the risk of radial shakes.
