Abstract

The chapters cover the basic principles of working with timber and provide detailed information on subjects such as thermal performance, sound insulation and fire protection. There is also a chapter devoted to the ecological significance of wood. Timber as a loadbearing material is considered and topics such as new methods of jointing, transport and erection are documented. The second part of the book presents a large number of built examples, which feature some classic structures but focus chiefly on more recent buildings. These are presented with full illustrations, details and plans which depict solutions as built for various loadbearing systems. The spectrum of timber structures presented ranges from heavy-duty bridges to multi-storey residential buildings and the magnificent Expo roof. The second chapter of examples deals specifically with topics such as facades, building envelope etc. All drawings and illustrations have been carefully produced to ensure that the details and methods of construction documented are clear and comprehensible.

TASCHEN's Wood Book reproduces, in painstakingfacsimile, all of the specimen pages from the original volumes; for thispurpose we have obtained the use of an extremely rare original set ofvolumes in very good condition, with minimal damage to the wood cuts. Foreach tree, three different cross-section cuts of wood are represented(radial, horizontal, and vertical), demonstrating the particularcharacteristics of the grain and the wealth of colors and textures to befound among the many different wood types. Also included in this specialedition are lithographs by Charles Sprague Sargent of the leaves and nutsof most trees, as well as texts describing the trees' geographicalorigins and physical characteristics. Interior designers, craftsmen,nature enthusiasts, and artists alike will enjoy this beautifulcollection of wood samples which includes many trees that are now veryrare or completely extinct.

Abstract

Le bois est une ressource durable et renouvelable. Il est résistant et séduisant. Il peut être cintré et mis en forme pour s’adapter aux projets les plus actuels. En architecture contemporaine, c’est le matériau du moment et ce nouveau volume offre au lecteur un aperçu sur les utilisations les plus dynamiques et les plus passionnantes du bois en architecture, et ce dans le monde entier. Comme la terre, le recours au bois est presque aussi ancien que l’art de construire. Les colonnes des anciens Grecs étaient des arbres stylisés. Les constructions actuelles en bois réservent toutes sortes de surprises et mieux encore, elles sont naturellement « vertes ».
