Potential of Wood as a Construction Material
The potential of wood in construction is becoming an increasingly discussed topic, which is intertwined with the renaissance of wood in architecture and construction as such. Wood is considered a strategic renewable raw material that has the potential to adapt to sustainable construction and save energy. Wood has various properties that make it a suitable material for specific purposes. Its properties, such as low heat absorption, self-regulation of humidity, good acoustic properties, and good mechanical properties, make it a suitable material for, for example, industrial buildings, sports halls, religious buildings, and residential and non-residential buildings. Not to mention the indisputable advantage of a low carbon footprint compared to other conventional materials. The so-called wood renaissance is a phenomenon that manifests itself mainly in Europe, where the tradition of using wood in architecture and construction is reappearing. This trendy use of wood is due to the effort to save energy and reduce the burden on the environment. Appropriate use of wood for construction is an important aspect so that wood can be used in construction efficiently and ecologically. This also includes reforestation and management of logging to minimize ecological problems.
