Abstract
The article discusses three main aspects of wooden low-rise housing construction that is environmental, economic and aesthetic ones. A wooden house is an environmentally friendly and healthy housing. Wooden houses usually cost less than stone or brick ones and require less energy for heating. Wooden houses can have a unique and at-tractive appearance thanks to various methods of finishing and decoration. The paper analyzes the new requirements for thermal engineering of enclosing structures and focuses on a new composite building material “Composite wooden beams” developed for low-rise housing construction. It presents the results of theoretical calculations and comparisons of heat transfer resistance for laminated timber and composite wooden beams, as well as the vapor permeability resis-tance of the new building material.
