parana pine wood is one of the most tensile materials on the planet
According to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_woods) parana pine is a softwood. Jason
The name would be Araucaria angustifolia. Family: Araucariaceae.
The softwood most commonly harvested in Brazil is the pine tree (Pinus sp.). This timber is widely used for construction, furniture, and paper production in the country.
Parana pine, while valued for its durability and aesthetic qualities, has several disadvantages. It is susceptible to pests and diseases, which can compromise its longevity and structural integrity. Additionally, the wood can be prone to warping and splitting if not properly treated and maintained. Finally, its availability is limited due to overharvesting and habitat loss, making it less sustainable compared to other wood options.

Not enough information, it depends on which Pine you mean, Oregon, Parana, Canadian or Red. They can weigh between 370 and 600 Kgs per cubic meter. You need to state if the timber is seasoned and dry or not.
