Timber construction has become completely modernized. It has gained
considerably in market share with respect to competing building
materials and is dominated by systems such as frame and solid
timber construction.
Every timber construction is determined by its structure. Hence
it is essential to know the connections and relationships from the
design stage right through to the construction phase. Systems in
Timber Engineering takes a whole new approach to this subject. It
is a comprehensive, analytical, and visually organized treatment,
from the simple single-family house to the large-scale multistore
structure. It includes the building envelope, which is so important
for saving energy, and systems for ceilings and interior dividing
walls, which are so essential from the vantage point of
construction.
This work uses plans, schematic drawings, and pictures to show
the current and forward-looking state of the technology as applied
in Switzerland, a leading country in the field of timber
construction.
