Abstract

Faced with man-made climate change and the need to provide housing for a growing world population, society needs to rethink the way future buildings are made. Wood is a truly renewable building material that is unlimited in supply if its growth and harvest are sustainably managed. Recent technological advancements in engineering allow the use of timber for the construction of multi-story structures, turning our buildings into carbon sinks rather than becoming sources for CO2-emissions. The book presents convincing arguments for the increased use of wood as an alternative to more fossil fuel intensive building materials, with the goal of demonstrating that an integrated approach can have the potential for positive impact on the environment, local economies, and the building culture at large.

Abstract

Bowett charts the species, sources, and history of the woods used in British furniture making from medieval times to the twentieth century. The main dictionary section of the book has 460 entries that cover 477 species of hardwoods and softwoods and detail the history of each wood, describe its uses, and provide cross references to other woods. Extensively illustrated with examples of historic furniture, this book also includes an introductory survey of the historic timber trade and several appendices, including over 160 illustrated wood samples from the Economic Botany collection at Kew Gardens. The layout and accompanying photographs make this a valuable and accessible read that will interest furniture and antique enthusiasts, collectors, restorers, curators, and botanists, among others.

Abstract

Holz eignet sich fast uneingeschränkt für den Einsatz im mehrgeschossigen Hochbau. Das ist neu und bedarf eines kreativen Umgangs mit der bisher praktizierten Holzbaukonstruktion: Anstelle klassischer Kategorisierungen treten bedarfsorientiert Mischbauweisen innerhalb eines Projektes. Damit eröffnen sich für die Holzbauarchitektur völlig neue Möglichkeiten. Dieser Atlas vermittelt Architekten, Ingenieuren und Holzfachleuten die wesentlichen Fachkenntnisse zur neuen Systematik und Konstruktionsmethodik vom Entwurf über die Vorfertigung bis zur Fügung vor Ort. Er schafft gegenseitiges Verständnis bei allen Projektbeteiligten für die nötige Zusammenarbeit im integralen Planungs- und Bauprozess und liefert die erforderliche technische Kompetenz, um den neuen Holzbau überzeugend zu vertreten. Wood is suitable for use in multistorey building construction with barely any restrictions. This is new and requires creative rethinking of tried and tested practices in wood construction: classical categories can be replaced by mixed construction methods as necessary within a project, which yields completely new possibilities in designing wood structures. The Manual provides architects, engineers and wood specialists with the essential expertise on the new systematics and construction methodology, from the design to prefabrication to the implementation on site. It lays the grounds for mutual understanding among everyone involved in the project, to facilitate the necessary cooperation in the integral planning and construction process.
