The present research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of linseed oil as a natural preservative in structural elements made of Tornillo wood. So that it can be used as a sustainable alternative for the environment. Therefore, tests of basic density, moisture content, hardness, bending and compression parallel to the grain were carried out on 3 types of samples: natural wood samples without treatment, samples treated with linseed oil and samples treated with chemical preservative. The results were compared with Standard E.010 and the results obtained in previous studies. They concluded that linseed oil helps to preserve the wood, forming a thin film around the wood, which provides resistance to compression and prevents moisture content increase. However, the results of the flexural test show that more drying time is required to adequately evaluate how linseed oil affects the behavior of the wood. Since, in the first test performed, the sample treated with linseed oil obtained a lower value compared to the other samples. This differs from the second test performed days later, where the result was higher than the one obtained when testing the other samples.
