I spent 8 months with the professional and friendly West Pine MDF tech team as a lab assistant in Quesnel, BC. Daily routines include Quality Assurance (QA) as well as Quality Control (QC) for the production. Standard tests such as Internal Bond (IB), Static Bending (for MOE/MOR), 24h Soaks, Moisture Content, Profile are required.
In addition to conducting mechanical tests, I was involved in projects aimed at optimizing the production process and analyzing data. The creation of a recipe database allows for more in-depth analysis in refining production recipes. I developed a dunnage placement program, streamlining the process for any potential combination of dimensions through modeling and field research.
This project will ultimately result in improved data storage and consistency of proper dunnage placement in the packaging line. With this improvement, information will be more reliably stored, and product warp caused by improper dunnage placement can be avoided. Furthermore, I took on the responsibility of training press operators in the use of the new software, contributing to the enhancement of my communication skills.
This fall I completed my final work term and second work term at the Pacific Forestry Centre in Victoria, BC. As a research assistant in the Bark Beetle Ecology Lab, I had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects including field trapping, lab experiments, and GIS work.
The main lab projects I was working on involved rearing mountain pine beetles and spruce beetles in logs at different temperature treatments. After periods of time I would peel the insects out the bark to gather data on their development and cold tolerance.
These studies are important for BC forest managers to understands how beetles in natural populations will be able to survive different temperatures under climate change. This was a such a great experience and I learned so much about forestry research while working in a Canadian Government research centre.
