Immeuble de grande hauteur en bois

Dans la plupart des pays la hauteur autorisée des bâtiments en bois est encore limitée par la loi. Malgré les grands progrès de la recherche en matière de protection contre les incendies, la hauteur maximale reste de trois à six étages, et seuls quelques pays, comme la Norvège, autorisent la construction de bâtiments de plus de huit étages - hauteur à partir de laquelle un bâtiment est considéré comme "haut" - en bois, matériau de construction combustible. Ces dernières années, de plus en plus de normes et labels ont vu le jour afin de promouvoir la durabilité dans le domaine de la construction, montrant une volonté des autorités de diminuer son impact écologique. Cependant, le bois, bien qu’étant un matériau dont la durabilité n’est plus à prouver face à l’acier et au béton, continue d’être freiné par ces limites législatives. C’est pourquoi je me suis décidé à effectuer mon projet de Master sur ce sujet. Les bâtiments en bois de grande hauteur ont un énorme potentiel dans le futur de la construction et leur domaine de recherche reste encore très peu développé.
