Lecture

Construction in Wood

Description

This lecture covers the structural elements of building construction in wood, including primary, secondary, and tertiary structures, as well as the hierarchy of the structure. It also discusses the design considerations for wooden structures, such as double posts, beams, and floor systems, and the importance of coupling double posts. The lecture further explores the assembly of wooden structures, the use of furrows to prevent buckling, and the different types of beams and slabs used in construction. Additionally, it delves into the pre-dimensioning of reinforced concrete slabs, the estimation of element dimensions during design, and the materials used in structural elements like earth, clay, cement, and silico-limestone.
