The influence of wood moisture content on the fracture behaviour of Norway spruce was investigated. The tensile strength rose to around 10% in samples with a lower moisture content. After reaching the maximum below the level of fibre saturation, it falls back, almost linearly. Irrespective of the moisture content, a rigid fracture behaviour was observed.
