“…To achieve a thermal mass equivalent to the favored monolithic stone and brick house and unlike the common wooden lightweight structures, the mass of the trunk was taken literally by applying the wood in a massive way. The board staple-structure [6] insulates already rather well, so an average amount of insulation applied on it, achieves a much better uwww.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3541 (on-line)…”

This conference was held in a lodge in the "New Forest". This is an ideal environment to make the conference participants aware of the topic, addressing wood as nature's most direct and oldest building product, which has the greatest potential for helping the world into a postfossil future. Although wood is the most organic material, when it comes to public appreciation as a building material, it is not ranked highly. The author will question and answer how architecture technologically and aestetically can treat wood as an "up-to-date" and "state of the art (and architecture)" building material truly belonging to today's world. The author will show by means of students', colleagues' and personal work, how wood can create a sustainable architectural space and form evoking respect and appreciation from all human senses. Both practicing in Hannover, Germany and teaching in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA, the author will introduce in his paper the intercultural approach to wood research in natural building design. Work in progress and widely published built projects will illustrate the strategies for improving the environment with wood. The author's recent experience with the new TMT (Thermal Modification Technology) and the results of his participation in the 4 European Thermowood conference in February 2006 in Leipzig, Germany will be shared with the conference participants. The paper presentation will point out the challenges and potential of rethinking and reinventing wood as the building material for a future related to postfossil nature.

“…Mass timber methods involve fitting CLT plates or dimensional lumber into a solid timber wall or ceiling component, e.g. a board plywood deck or a board stack wall (Herzog et al, 2003). Yet in a large and upscaling market the material demand of solid timber buildings will quickly exceed the supply of sustainably sourced timber (Kromoser et al, 2021) Limited research has been conducted on the spatial robotic assembly of wood joints.…”

“…Timber construction plays a critical role in pursuing a more sustainable alternative to carbon-intensive concrete and steel buildings (Herzog et al, 2003). Recent advances in the timber industry as well as updates to building codes have enabled architects and engineers to design and construct multi-storey buildings, but these designs focus mostly on light wood stud framing or mass timber construction methodologies, such as cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels (Deplazes, 2000).…”

This paper discusses the design and development of scale masonry structures using robot arms, computer vision hardware and bespoke computational workflows. In parallel to the development of full-scale masonry solutions using a Cable Driven Parallel Robot (CDPR), a faster method for testing large numbers of brick elements is needed to verify buildability, mitigate collisions, and think differently about recycled materials during real-world construction activities. Additionally, by incorporating scanning and analysis technology, materials can be digitized, and their attributes translated into variables for placement within an intended structure.

“…At the same time, especially in German version of this term, an emphasis is placed on inter-frame gaps [7], and not on the frame. Along with this, there is a non-separation of the terms 'truss' (construction) and 'half-timbered' (construction equipment) [8]. In addition, German experts may refer to 'timber frame' conical dwellings filled with clay-coated wattle (wattle and daub) or covered with skins [9,10].…”

The problem of reconstruction, renovation and revitalisation of unused or abandoned framed architectural objects is one of the cases of modern sustainable development. For several such objects, complex reconstruction projects were developed during the course of four International interdisciplinary student workshops “International Building Challenge” that include the choice of new functionality. Considered Objects for renovation include the equestrian yard of the Kuznetsovs' estate in Dolgoprudny (Moscow Area, Russia), pavilion 24 of the Trekhgornaya Manufactory in Moscow, Russia, the hanging room of the Zhivopisny bridge in Moscow, Russia as well as several water towers in the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation. All mentioned objects are having at least one uniting feature: an interpretation of frame house. For the first time in Russia, mentioned student’s projects reflected the real interaction of urban planners, developers, architects, designers and engineers. Projects consisted of several components: ecological (choice of materials, utilities, ecological zoning of the territory, green design standards), economic (best-use calculation), and social (needs of local residents). Empty or abandoned buildings on a frame construction basis showed functional flexibility and versatility.
