Abstract

Wood structure is a kind of space or plane structure which is mainly loaded by wood or wood products and connected and fixed by various metal connectors or mortise and tenon. Wood structure building refers to the building with wood as load-bearing components. Wood used in wood structure building materials, wood from renewable natural resources, is green material. Wood is the only renewable green building material in the main building structure materials. It has unique advantages different from other traditional building materials in recycling, energy saving, and environmental protection, earthquake resistance and disaster reduction, assembly and prefabrication, construction efficiency, and so on. Scientific management and use of forest resources, under the condition of ensuring resource renewal, timber can be produced continuously, which can effectively solve the problem of shortage of raw materials. In wood structure building, wood can be used for both structural load-bearing and interior and exterior decoration. With the development and popularization of modern integrated material technology, the application technology of wood for building structure is becoming more and more modern. It is no longer a brick and wood house in the traditional sense. More and more small-size or even fragmentary wood is used to process and synthesize large-scale building components. This paper introduces the characteristics of wood structure building, studies the development status and existing problems of wood structure building in China and abroad, and puts forward some suggestions for the future development direction of wood structure building.
