Wooden structure residential structure form and advantages

Today's society is a very modern society, and with the development of society, we live in the house is also appearing more and more big changes, even in the structure of the house is also changed radically. Today I would like to introduce you to a very traditional form of construction, which is the wooden structure of the house. And for its introduction, I mainly consider the introduction of two key aspects, one is the structural form of wood-frame dwellings, and one is the advantages of wood-frame dwellings.

Structural Forms of Wood Frame Homes

Structural Form 1: Beam and column structural system. Usually made of materials such as solid wood or glued wood, with metal fasteners to link the components, it is widely used in religious, residential, school, garage and other buildings, and is more commonly found in Chinese homes.

Structural form two: light wood structure system. What is light wood structure? In layman's terms, it means that the basic frame of the walls and roof is a wood structure built with the general specifications of 2x4 (38x89mm) and 2x6 (38x140mm). This wood structure system is mostly used for single-family houses. And in terms of regional distribution, it is mostly distributed in North America.

Structural form three: wood-carved corrugated structure. Usually use wood and hand axe carving out, very standardized and neat, angular. It is also named for this reason. Like all buildings, the wood-carved flute structure of the residential construction method is to hit the foundation, cover, stacking ...... This type of building structure is more common in Russia.

Wooden houses

Earthquake resistance

Wooden houses have a very good life safety performance in earthquakes, and one of the more common examples of this is the fact that Japan, which is prone to earthquakes, is basically a wooden house.

Durability

Wood is a natural, healthy and very affinity for the material, especially in the construction of the house, choose a good wood material, but also can play a multiplier effect. According to my understanding, in reality, the wood structure villa is basically built using high-grade pine wood. One point that needs special explanation is that, as long as in the process of use, a little attention, wood structure home will be a very long life of a building.

Fireproof

Many friends will be skeptical when they see this feature, "Isn't wood the most flammable, and why is it still fireproof?" In fact, a lot of wood in the construction of the house, will be fire-retardant treatment. After the fire retardant treatment of wood is an excellent charring effect. When it comes into contact with fire, it produces a charred layer, which stops the flames from spreading inward.

Of course, in addition to the above several major advantages, wood frame construction also has moisture-proof, environmental protection, energy saving, practical and other advantages. Although with the development of society, more and more buildings tend to be modernized and trendy, but according to my observation, the current style of construction has a tendency to return to the wood structure Oh, after all, the style of wood structure building is also very atmospheric.
