Wooden Buildings

Examples of use of wood in construction

Wood construction has developed substantially in the recent years. Wood has always been the material for smaller buildings and structures but through consistent research and development wood is today an option for all sizes and heights as well as building types.

In many countries the Timber Councils, national and regional, manage good and updated websites sharing knowledge and pictorial material of various types of buildings in wood.

There are also other databases available sharing knowledge and news about wood construction.
