| Abstrait: |
A growing need for better performing materials and developing sustainable building solutions with less environmental impact has become indispensable. Renewable resources such as wood provide a natural way to design and build innovative structural systems. The industrialized processes and cutting-edge concepts make wooden buildings a highly competitive and sustainable alternative. Using massive wood elements and housing modules constructed of engineered wood products such as CLT and LVL is an example of building innovation. With today's climate challenges and ongoing sustainability demands it is important to make urban planning and policy development as environmentally friendly as possible. Using wood as construction material is an environmentally conscious choice leading to a solution meeting the needs of population growth and urbanization. |
