Wooden houses are the best choice for all who want a natural, economic and ecological home. Wood is a lightweight material that can be multilaterally processed, has no emissions, is healthy and economical. Wooden houses breathe, contributing to a healthy and natural environment.
Wooden houses are flexible and light, and are not dangerous in the event of an earthquake. The principle of weight transmission is the same as that of frame structures, with the difference that the material used is wood, which is more elastic than conventional building materials.
This, along with its own reduced weight, allows constructions made on the wood structure to withstand earthquakes with magnitude over 8 degrees on the Richter scale.
Despite the prejudices, the main qualities of wood remain elasticity and durability. There is a preconceived opinion that things that are done quickly are not sustainable. Wooden houses show that “fast” and “sustainable” is a real concept.
