Protrade did a technical manual on Coconut Palm Stem Processing. Among other things it points out that the density of the wood from young trees is so low that they do not make good construction material. Old trees have the best wood. I attach the manual.
The FAO did a forestry paper (no 57) on coconut wood processing (attached)
They also did a paper on coconut production (confusingly also No 57 in that series - I have not been able to locate an electronic copy of that).
There are simply thousands of papers and books on coconuts. In 1985 the Philippine Council for Agriculture and Resources Research and Development published Technical Bulletin 60, a 93 page booklet on "Philippines Recommends for Coconut Timber Utilization"
The Council is at: https://www.pcaarrd.dost.gov.ph/
However Coconut R&D is now undertaken by the Philippines Coconut Authority's (https://www.pca.da.gov.ph/) Research and Development Extension Branch which has an ask our expert forum at https://www.pca.da.gov.ph/coconutrde/index.php/forum.
Coconut researchers in the Philippines might be best placed to answer questions about coconut palms.
