Description

This comprehensive guide explores the durability of building construction materials, defined as the ability of a product to maintain its required performance over time under foreseeable conditions. The book addresses durability as both a technological and economic consideration, essential for selecting appropriate materials based on intended use and service conditions. It includes detailed experimental analysis of timber-framed walls functioning as primary bearing capacity elements in prefabricated timber structures, alongside coverage of energy-efficient design principles. The text combines practical engineering knowledge with materials science fundamentals, making it valuable for professionals in construction, architecture, and materials engineering seeking to understand how material selection impacts long-term building performance and cost-effectiveness.

Key Features
