Prospects for the multi-storey buildings construction using wooden structures

Abstract

Abstract This article presents the multi-storey wooden construction development problem in Russia. The paper presents the work results on the possible mixed systems development for multi-storey buildings, where wood is embedded in the building structural system. In addition, the wood introduction effects are evaluated. A 16-storey business center, with dimensions in terms of 22x44 meters was considered. As a result of the research for this object, a comparative analysis of a reference building made of monolithic reinforced concrete and four concepts, made entirely or partially of wood, was performed. According to the analysis results, strength, technical and economic indicators were calculated, and the conclusions and recommendations of advisory nature were made.
