Résumé:

In light of environmental challenges architecture is facing, wood is no longer regarded as outmoded, nostalgic, and rooted in the past, but increasingly recognised as one of the most promising building materials for the future. Recent years have seen unprecedented innovation of new technologies for advancing wood architecture. This volume gives a comprehensive overview of the new architectural possibilities that are enabled by cutting-edge computational technologies in wood construction.
