520 _aThe study, Development of Particle Board using Anahaw Stalks and Polyester Resin as Binder, aims to produce a locally available particle board that can be used as material in building construction. The particle board is made from chipped anahaw stalk mixed with a polyester resin that acts as a binder with the ratio of 30:70, 40:60, and 50:50, respectively, in a 30 cm x 30 cm dimension with 1.20 cm thickness and with 0.8g/cc density. The entire specimen undergoes a series of tests, such as Face Screw Holding, Water Absorption, and Thickness Swelling, to determine their physical properties. Modulus of Rapture and Internal Bond tests were used to determine its mechanical properties. All test results were compared following with the Philippine National Standard (PNS) Specification for particle board. The product was evaluated by 25 evaluators composed of students of TUP Quezon, hardware store, office staff, safety officer, engineering aides, registrar, TUP Faculty, Civil Engineers, and architects. Based on the tests and evaluation results, the most appropriate mix design of the particle board made from anahaw stalks and polyester resin as a binder is the 40% chipped anahaw stalk and 60% polyester resin. The developed particle board has a low capacity to bear a load. When the amount of polyester resin is reduced, the board’s strength also decreases, and when the chipped anahaw stalks increase from the ratio of 50%, the strength also decreases. The summary of testing and evaluation on the project’s acceptability was “Very Acceptable”. This means that the particle board made with anahaw stalks and polyester resin is still good and effective material in building construction.
