  1. Standard deviation is given in round brackets
  2. Subscripts of “a”, “15”, “(e)”, “(o)” and “(ASTM)” mean “moisture content after drying”, “moisture content of 15%”, “estimated value”, “observed value” and “observed value collected by ASTM method [21]” (see Table 1)
  3. E m means Young’s modulus estimated using Monte Carlo simulation (see Table 1) and MOE means modulus of elasticity in bending
  4. a n means number of analyzed data set
