What are the mechanical properties of balsa core materials?

Balsa core materials exhibit excellent compressive strength, high shear resistance, and good fatigue performance relative to their low weight. End-grain balsa cores provide superior load transfer between face sheets, improving panel stiffness and durability. These properties make balsa core materials highly suitable for demanding structural applications, including marine hulls, decks, wind turbine blades, and transportation panels requiring long-term mechanical stability.
