RESUMO

The first part of this work was led from August from 2004 to August 2005. The objective of evaluating the influence of two enviroments: forest and open field, in the durability of recently abated toras of five forest species: Eucalyptus urophylla " Eucalyptus " (Myrtaceae), Melia azedarach L. " Cinamomo " (Meliaceae), Lophantera lactescens Ducke, Lanterneira (Malpighiaceae), Pinus elliottii "Pinus" (Pinaceae), Inga marginata " Inga " (Mimosaceae), as well as to evaluate the beetles and termites occurrence in the respective wood and enviroments, through collections of wood sub-samples, in defione time, and of collections of the ocurrente termites, in the dismantle of the experiment. The beetles occurrence were just registered in the timber of Inga marginata and in the field from inside the forest, and the identified species were: Euplatypus parallelus and Teloplatypus ratzeburgi, both of the family Platypodidae. 56,6% of the timber were enrolled with the presence of termites in the field from inside thee forest, where the species found were: Nasutitermes minor, Nasutitermes jaraguae and Heterotermes longiceps. In the open field, it was registered 20% of the timber with the presence of termites, with a since species found, Heterotermes longiceps. For the evaluation of the natural durability, a classification system was adopted, where through the deterioration level, notes were attributed. The smallest indexes, for both enviroment were registered by the timber of E. urophylla, 60 inside the forest and 70 of outside forest. The second part of this work had the objective of evaluating the influence of the intemperism, in the physical and mechanical wood properties. Mechanical rehearsals were accomplished with the wood non degradation, for further comparison with the values obtained from the rehearsals accomplished in the wood coming from the intemperized timber. Significant reductions of the density were observed only the exposed wood from the rotten field of the forest. The wood of L. lactescnes was the only one that didn t show the resistance from the compression and the module of elasticity and rupture, in the static flex, altered after the intemperism, in the two enviroments. The largest reductions in the module of elasticity and rupture, as well as in the resistance from compression, were registered in the wood of E. urophylla, in both enviroments. The third part of this work had the objective of studing the natural resistance of the wood, Coptotermes gestroi action, as well as to trace a discussion on the methodologies that evaluate the resistance of the wood to termites and to propose a protocol that contemplates the referred study, in a more appropriate way, and that can predict, in a more real way, the resistance of the wood when in service. The wood that losis more mass, front the action of C. gestroi was the L, lactescens and the one that loses less mass was M azedarach. E. urophylla and L. lactescens were framed in the resistant class and M. azedarach and I. marginata, as highly resistant to C. gestroi in the rehearsal of free choice. The suggested method, denominated semicampo, was efficient for the evaluation of natural resistance of the wood and feeding preference.
