The book delves into various topics, including the physical and mechanical properties of wood, preservative treatments, modified timber and engineered-timber products, environmental considerations of timber buildings, and structural systems and constructional techniques, including timber frame, structural insulated panels, and cross-laminated timber.
Throughout the book, detailed drawings and photographs meticulously document the projects from their inception to completion, providing a visual feast for readers.
