Abstract

The 22nd International Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation of Wood Symposium was hosted by the Université Laval in Quebec City, Canada, May 24–27, 2022. This symposium was a forum for those involved in nondestructive testing and evaluation (NDT/NDE) of wood and brought together many international researchers, NDT/NDE users, suppliers, representatives from various government agencies, and other groups to share research results, products, and technology for evaluating a wide range of wood products, including standing trees, logs, structural lumber, engineered wood products, and wood structures. Networking among participants encouraged international collaborative efforts and fostered the implementation of NDT/NDE technologies around the world. A special on-line session was conducted to accommodate individuals who could not attend in-person due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The technical content of the 22nd symposium is captured in these proceedings. Full-length, in-depth technical papers for most of the oral presentations, along with abstracts for all the oral and poster presentations, are published herein. The papers were not peer reviewed and are reproduced here as they were submitted by the authors.
