Abstract :
In this paper, the change of wood strength under pressure of fixing items is studied. Influence of the handle tool on the wood strength is experimentally investigated and modeling. Radar images are received which allow to quantitatively evaluate a change of building material strength. There are zones of cracks besides compression pressures in the nail field. It is directed along fibers and taking place on distance about four diameters of nail.
