Basics Timber Construction

Holz ist einer der elementarsten und ältesten Baustoffe der Menschheit und hat bis heute nicht an Attraktivität und Aktualität verloren. In vielen Kultur- und Klimazonen sind neben Mauerwerksbauten Wohnhäuser aus Holz die dominierende Bauweise. Das lebendige, leichte und einfach zu verarbeitende Material unterliegt jedoch speziellen Eigenarten, die in ihrer Bauweise nicht mit anderen Baustoffen zu vergleichen sind. Um qualitative und materialgerechte Entwürfe zu entwickeln, benötigen Architekten spezifische Kenntnisse über diesen Baustoff und über die im Holzbau verwendeten Konstruktionsregeln. Die Neuauflage des erfolgreichen Bandes Basics Holzbau ergänzt die gebräuchlichsten Bausysteme um das Thema des Massivholzbaus mit massiven Wandbauelementen, deren Regeln und Anwendungen sowie die dazugehörigen Details.
