Abstract
The paper presents the initial results of research focused on the possibilities of using transparent wood for building envelope structural elements in architecture. Sometheoretical analyses of the hybrid envelope panelsmade with different types of transparent wood were carried out. The aimof the study was to assess static and hygrothermal behaviour of such panels. The panels were considered to be two layers of transparent wood bio-composites each 10 mm thickglued to an oak timber frame with only plain air as insulator in the panel.Because only small samples of transparent wood were produced so far, it was considered that mechanical properties of small samples would be retained in large ones as well.
