Book Description
The worldwide booming timber construction sector and its rapid development beyond the limits of high-rise buildings demands high-performance materials, which are made possible by hardwood. Innovative production methods and manufacturing processes create economically competitive products that open up completely new possibilities for the construction sector - thanks to an almost forgotten building material. For it was not without reason that construction sector used predominantly hardwood until the 18th century. "Building with hardwood" focuses on its use in the supporting structure. The publication provides specialist knowledge for the safe handling of hardwood in building construction and shows successful examples of architecture from practice for practice.

Book Description
Introduces engineers, technologists, and architects to the design of wood structures, serving either as a text for a course in timber design or as a reference for self-study. A large number of practical design examples are provided throughout. This edition (2nd, 1988) integrates the new wood design criteria published in the 1991 National Design Specification for Wood Construction and the new seismic design requirements which are included in the 1988 and 1991 editions of the Uniform Building Code.
