Wood and Timber Construction
Wood and Timber Construction
Wood and Timber Construction uses wood members or engineered timber products to form buildings and their structural systems. Light framing, post-and-beam construction, and larger timber assemblies represent distinct approaches. Wood and Timber Construction combines the properties of the material with connections, bracing, and protective detailing, producing varied forms of housing, public buildings, and other structures across traditional and contemporary practice.

Structural Materials and Building Systems
Timber, concrete, steel, masonry, bamboo, and earth provide different ways to support and enclose a building. Site-built and prefabricated approaches organize the same structural tasks differently, with material properties, member connections, weather protection, and assembly methods shaping the design and construction of each system.
