Abstract: 
Site conditions and forest management affect dendrometric parameters of chestnut (Castanea
sativa Mill.) coppices, but there is modest knowledge on the effect of stand dendrometric characters
on physical and mechanical wood characteristics. The aim of this study was to verify these
relationships in chestnut coppices that were 12–14 years old. Wood density, compression and bending
strength, shrinkages were measured on shoots of five different stand in a vulcanic site in Monte
Amiata (Central – Italy). Investigated stands differ in number of stools/ha and dominant height,
diameter/basal area of the shoots. The main difference in the physical characters among the stands is
density. The initial results of the study showed that physical, mechanical wood characters are more
dependent by the shoot than by the site. There is a positive relationships between the number of
stools/ha and density and a negative one among shoot dominant height and basal area with wood
density. Spectroscopic profile by FTIR has not showed relevant differences among the stands. Wood
anatomy has showed the breakpoint at cellular level.
