In this study, effects of wood species and profile type at mistered profiled corner joints on the diagonal compression strength were researched. Two profile types were applied to the mitered ends of samples from Beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) and Scotch pine (Pinus silvestris L.)which are widely used in furniture industry as wood as species. The length of profile is longer from the other. PVA glues was used as binder. 80 samples were prepared according to the ASTM 143-88 and applied diagonal compression strength test to them. The highest diagonal compression strengths were obtained with samples from Beech wood and have longer profileKeywords: Finger Joint, Scotch pine, Beech, Diagonal Compression Strength
