The Importance of Wood and Timber in Sustainable Buildings
ISBN: 9783030717025 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book emphasizes the important message that architects and structural engineers must strive to ensure that the buildings they design and construct should not be major contributors to climate change. Rather, they should be exploring the use of green materials and building methods – such as timber, wood, and associated materials – in order to safeguard the environment. These sustainable materials are not only environmentally friendly, but they have the added benefit of being easy to manufacture, cost effective, often locally available, and easily replenished. Moreover, it has been...
