Abstract
A review of properties on the same lines as previous leaflets. Chengal (<i>Neobalanocarpus heimii</i>) is the standard timber for durable heavy construction in peninsular Malaysia where it is widespread, although it grows nowhere else. Average air-dry density is 945 kb/m<sup>3</sup>. It is not difficult to work with. -- AATA
