Web Based Application<\/span>
EMC Calculate<\/a> – a web based application that estimates the wood EMC (Equilibrium Moisture Content) based on the dry bulb temperature and one of the following: relative humidity; wet bulb or dew point temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Software Downloads<\/span>
Air-Drying Estimator V1<\/a> – once you click the link, be sure to download the file. (or, to receive a copy, email Phil_Mitchell@ncsu.edu) This Excel.xlsx program predicts air-drying time based on species, location, initial moisture content and target moisture content.
EMC Calculate V1<\/a> – an Excel.xls program that will calculate wood Equilibrium Moisture Content (EMC) based on dry bulb temperature and either the wet bulb temperature, the dew point temperature, or the percent relative humidity.
The EMC of Wood at Exterior Locations in the US<\/a> – an Excel program that will calculate and graphically present the monthly outdoor Equilibrium Moisture Content (EMC) of wood for 252 US locations based on the recent Climate Normals published by the National Climate Data Center.
Differential Shrinkage and the Cupping of Lumber<\/a> – an Excel model that predicts lumber shrinkage and potential cupping based on log location, species, and change in moisture content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
