The manufacture of solid wood panels, based on advanced technologies, has enabled the construction
of increasingly tall buildings, entirely built in wood or with hybrid systems. Historically, despite having
brilliant architectural examples around the world, built in wood spanning millennia, the durability of
such material still raises many questions, especially those related to the hygroscopic nature of wood. In
action planning, in which one intends to build durable buildings, issues related to environmental
sustainability come to the fore, in the same discourse plan, since in the current context of environmental concerns with climate effects, energy consumption in buildings must receive priority attention. Wood,
as a renewable source of energy, is a material with important constructive potential and therefore this
article seeks to relate the two issues, durability and energy efficiency in buildings that fulfill their
environmental role, with longevity and providing safety and comfort to users. |
