here is a good spot ...or just look for modulus of elasticity wood...there is tons of stuff..You might note though that wood is a plastic media and not all wood acts alike ..it has some moment of rotation in one direction ,,none in others is has a season (or lifetime limit for stress) its pretty complex is what I'm trying to say. Once you thinks you got all you need remember to add 25% to the cross section and cut the spans by 20%...scared yet..well in 40 years of messing with green grey brown .."YELLAR" and everyhing in between i learn something new every day....good luck from the E....
