This study wasperformed to determine the effectsof impregnation with Tanalith-E on compression strengths of Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky), European oak (Quercus petraea Liebl.), Black walnut (Junglansnigra Lipsky), Lombardy poplar (Populus nigra Lipsky), Ash (Fraxinus exelsior Lipsky) and Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris Lipsky) woods. For this aim, the wood samples wereprepared according to TS 345 and impregnated with Tanalith-E by the method ofthe vacuum according to ASTM D 1413 and producers’ definition. Afterimpregnation process, compressionstrength was measured according to TS 2595. Consequently, compressionstrengths of wood un-impregnated were found higher (approximately 6.63%) thanimpregnated with Tanalith-E wood materials. Accordingly, the highest values ofcompression strengths were obtained in impregnated Oriental beech and ashwoods, whereas the lowest values were obtained in the Lombardy poplar wood.
