Hoʻohana nui ʻia ʻo ʻOak ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻonani a no ka hana ʻana i nā lako ma muli o kāna mau waiwai waiwai maikaʻi: ʻo ka ʻoka he kaumaha, paʻakikī, me ka palaoa pololei, kahi ʻano koʻikoʻi, kahi kala māmā a nani, a me ka ikaika mechanical kiʻekiʻe. He kūpaʻa ia i ka ʻaʻahu, akā ʻaʻole maʻalahi ka lāʻau e maloʻo, ʻike, a ʻoki ʻia paha. Hoʻohana nui ʻia nā papa ʻoka paʻa i nā mea hoʻonaninani, nā lako lako, nā mea haʻuki, nā mea hana moku, nā mea kaʻa, nā mea papahele, etc.
ʻO nā ʻāpana ʻoka keʻokeʻo a me ka ʻoka ʻulaʻula he mau mea kūpono hoʻi no ka hana ʻana i ka plywood veneered. ʻOkoʻa ko lākou mau hiʻohiʻona ma waena o ka palaoa pololei a me ke kea, me ka ʻoi aku o ka nani a ʻoi aku ka pipiʻi o ka palaoa pololei.
Hoʻolaha nui ʻia nā papa ʻoka paʻa ma nā wahi nui o ka ʻĀpana ʻĀkau, me 300 mau ʻano. Ma ka mākeke, ua māhele ʻia ka ʻoka i ʻelua mau ʻāpana: ʻulaʻula a me ka ʻoka keʻokeʻo. Hana nui ʻia ka ʻoka ʻulaʻula ma ʻAmelika ʻĀkau a me ʻEulopa, a pēlā aku; ʻO ka ʻoka keʻokeʻo i hana nui ʻia ma Asia, ʻEulopa, a me ʻAmelika ʻĀkau. ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona o ka lāʻau o ka ʻoka ʻulaʻula a me ka ʻoka keʻokeʻo e like me nā ʻano Kina e like me ka ʻoka lehu a me ka hornbeam. ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona morphological o ka ʻoka he mau apo ulu aʻe, ʻaleʻale iki, ke kaumaha a me ka paʻakikī, ka palaoa pololei, ke ʻano koʻikoʻi, a me nā hiʻohiʻona nani.
Loaʻa i ka ʻOak nā hiʻohiʻona o ke ʻano paʻakikī a me ka palaoa pololei, no laila he ikaika mechanical kiʻekiʻe, kūʻokoʻa i ka ʻaʻahu, a kūpono hoʻi no ka hana ʻana i nā mea pono e like me nā moena, nā lole lole, a me nā sofas. ʻO nā lako i hana ʻia i ka lāʻau ʻoka he paʻa, paʻa ka hana, maʻalahi i ka hana, aesthetics maikaʻi, kūʻē i ka maʻa a me ka ʻōpala, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. Hiki nō hoʻi i ka deformation ke ʻike ʻia i nā wela kiʻekiʻe. Ma muli o ka lōʻihi o ka ulu ʻana, ʻoi aku ke kumukūʻai o nā lako lako.
Nā huahana pale: nā papa ʻoka paʻa, nā mea hana papa ʻoka paʻa Kina, nā mea hoʻolako, hale hana
