Almost any construction task can be elaborated with skilful utilisation of different wood types in appropriate construction methods. Wood scores particularly well when used in existing buildings. This is because it is comparatively light and easy to prefabricate, meaning that even statically demanding extensions can be built in short time, which is also economically attractive.The publication Timber Constructions in Existing Contexts, which is part of the renowned Practice DETAIL series, provides architects with the expertise they need to competently meet all the challenges of their next refurbishment project. 0aWooden-frame buildingszEurope 0aBuilding materials.zEurope 0aBuilding, Wooden.zEurope 0aARCHITECTURE / Methods & Materials. 0aArchitecture, European 0aArchitecturezEurope aStieglmeir, Manfred  aEngel, Thomas
