Holzbauten werden heute dank leistungsfähiger Verbundkonstruktionen aus Holz und Stahl oder Beton weit jenseits der Hochhausgrenze errichtet. Ein Ende des Höhenwachstums ist kaum absehbar. Auch im Wohnungs- und Bürobau, bei Sporthallen, Industriebauten und Brücken sind Holzkonstruktionen auf dem Vormarsch. Sie gelten als Inbegriff nachhaltigen Bauens und sind durch neue, rationelle Vorfertigungsverfahren auch in puncto Baukosten wettbewerbsfähig. Das Buch „Natur + Struktur – Holztragwerke“ zeigt die aktuelle Entwicklung der Tragwerksplanung mit Holz anhand von rund 20 herausragenden Ingenieurbauten. An der Planung beteiligte Ingenieure beschreiben die Konzeption der Tragwerke sowie individuelle Lösungen für ihre Realisierung. Fachbeiträge aus Forschung und Technik runden das Werk ab. Thanks to high-performance composite structures made of wood and steel or concrete, wooden buildings are now being erected far beyond the high-rise boundaries. An end to the increase in altitude is hardly in sight. Wooden constructions are also on the uptrend in residential and office construction, sports halls, industrial buildings and bridges. They are the epitome of sustainable building and, thanks to new prefabrication processes, are also competitive in terms of construction costs. The book shows the current development of structural planning with wood on the basis of around 20 outstanding engineering structures. The engineers involved in the planning describe the conception of the supporting structures as well as individual solutions for their implementation.

Wood is the building material of the 21st century. Understanding this material and its potential requires us to recognize its ecological, technological and cultural-historical contexts. Touch Wood explores this potential, with inspiring examples―both practical and visionary―from the US, Japan, Austria, Norway, Switzerland and elsewhere. Aimed at an engaged audience of both experts and laypersons who aspire to enrich their experiences with knowledge and thus become actors in the promotion of wood in architecture, this book documents various exemplary buildings in accessible texts and with numerous illustrations. Touch Wood also illuminates the many relationships that connect people with wood as a material. Authors from various disciplines supply a framework in which wood can be experienced sensually and its possibilities and limitations can be discussed.

"Over the last three decades, timber architecture has seen a resurgence in popularity thanks to the level of innovation, experimentation and environmental responsiveness it engenders. Designing Timber Buildings offers a comprehensive overview of timber as a construction material, in addition to practical design guidance. A series of ten exemplary case studies of award-winning timber building from around the world inform and inspire the design process. Topics covered include: the physical and mechanical properties of wood; preservative treatments; modified timber and engineered-timber products; environmental aspects of timber buildings and finally, structural systems and constructional techniques, including timber frame, structural insulated panels and cross-laminated timber. This book is richly illustrated throughout with detailed drawings and photographs documenting projects from construction to completion."
