What Is Timber Framing?
Timber frame as its name implies is the use of wood as the main building material in the form of frame, widely used in houses, bridges, landscapes and other construction and industrial fields.
Wooden frame
- 1. It has both shock resistance, heat insulation and insulation;
- 2. Ingenious workmanship, such as through gimmicks, plugs and other processes, almost no external connection can be seen;
- 3. Materials are easy to process;
- 4. Under the premise of reasonable mining, natural resources are abundant.
- 1. Poor fire performance;
- 2, not resistant to acid and alkali and insect erosion, poor anti-corrosion performance;
- 3. Long regeneration period;
- 4. Since modern times, due to human destructive mining, resources have been severely damaged, and the shortage of large timber has also restricted the development of wooden frames.
- Ancient Chinese architecture has its roots in the original society from the beginning. It uses wood frame as its main structural method, and creates various planes and appearances that are suitable for this structure, forming a unique style. There are two different structural methods for the timber frame, namely the lifting beam, the bucket, and the two, and the beam lifting type has a wide range of uses and occupies the first place among the two.
- With the requirements of the era of low-carbon, environmental protection and sustainable development in modern society, the modern wooden frame has also entered a new stage of development. Its typical feature is that instead of using a single monolith, it uses modern science and technology and equipment. Through a series of technological processes such as material modification, bonding, high-pressure hot bending, and vacuum anticorrosion, production or customization can be more Composite wood materials with high physical properties, more fire resistance and more corrosion resistance are widely used in various fields such as construction.
