Thanks to its abundant forests, Slovenia has preserved the tradition of wood construction. As much as 60% of its surface is covered by forests. Slovenia is also the third most forested country in Europe. The high share of forest-covered surface allows for a sustainable production of high-quality wood. In the past, wood was used primarily in the construction of farm buildings, but now timber architecture is used for everything from residences and office buildings to public buildings such as community centres and schools. Timber construction is becoming increasingly popular. Apart from larger companies taking this approach, a great number of wooden houses have sprung up, built either on personal initiative or with the support of carpenter workshops. Slovenian timber architecture has taken a new approach to environmental and energy-efficiency problems and received great international recognition. The book discusses over fifty projects built over a ten-year period, and includes descriptions, photographs, and plans. The projects include residential areas, administration, and office, as well as tourist, educational, and industrial buildings. Timber architecture is presented as an integral part of the Slovenian landscape. The monograph will be useful to designers and future experts in their planning of optimal timber buildings and will highlight the main benefits of using timber construction. 410 0$aGreen Energy and Technology,$x1865-3529 606 $aEnergy consumption 606 $aBuilding materials 606 $aBuildings 606 $aEnergy Efficiency$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/118000 606 $aBuilding Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23047 606 $aBuilding Types and Functions$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K13004 615 0$aEnergy consumption. 615 0$aBuilding materials. 615 0$aBuildings. 615 14$aEnergy Efficiency. 615 24$aBuilding Materials. 615 24$aBuilding Types and Functions. 676 $a621.042 676 $a658.26 676 $a691 676 $a725-728 700 $aKitek Kuzman$b Manja$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0978135 702 $aKutnar$b Andreja$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299619203321 996 $aContemporary Slovenian Timber Architecture for Sustainability$92228340 997 $aUNINA
