Timber construction refers to the use of wood as a primary building material in the construction of structures. This method has been used for centuries and is valued for its sustainability, as wood is a renewable resource. Timber can be used in various forms, including solid wood, engineered wood products, and timber frames, allowing for flexibility in design and construction. In addition to its environmental benefits, timber construction offers good thermal insulation and aesthetic appeal. Buildings made from timber can be lightweight yet strong, making them suitable for a range of applications, from residential homes to commercial buildings. The use of timber also supports local economies by promoting forestry and woodworking industries.
