The purpose of this research was to understand the initial performance of structural members comprising an FFPRI model wooden house by non-destructively measuring their individual physical properties, e.g. column, beam and sill. The measured items were density and Young's modulus using the longitudinal vibration method. In addition, the bending Young's modulus and shear modulus of elasticity were measured using the flexure vibration method for beam members and moisture content was measured for around half the structural members. When some changes emerge in structural members in future, a comparative investigation can be performed based on the initial physical data acquired in this research.
