15、product to direct withdrawal of nails,staples,or screws is ameasure of its ability to hold or be held to an adjoining objectby means of such fasteners.Factors that affect this withdrawalresistance include the physical and mechanical properties ofthe wood;the size,shape,and surface condition of thefa
