The use of engineered wood products in sustainable building construction in Macedonia

Miloshevska Janakieska, Marija (avtor), Kitek Kuzman, Manja (avtor), Sandberg, Dick (avtor)

Wood, abundantly available locally since ancient times, played a pivotal role in Macedonian architecture. Functioning as a structural and decorative material, it enhanced both the exterior and the interior aesthetics of buildings. Despite its wide usage in the past, wood is nowadays mostly used in the mountain regions of Macedonia for holiday cottage, in the interior as furniture, flooring, ceiling and mouldings, and in exterior mostly as façade decoration due to its appealing aesthetics, and less, for walk paths. A new wave of companies specialising in the production of single-family timber houses is emerging. Over the past two decades, a novel category of structural wood products has evolved, laying the foundation for a diverse range of increasingly functional building solutions, unifying performance and sustainability aspects. The evolution was enabled by innovative industrial processes that offer larger dimensions and superior engineering properties for structural products. The outcome is a class of products commonly known as engineered wood products (EWPs), which are gaining momentum in architectural design and building applications. Macedonia is actively aligning with the trends observed in more developed countries, integrating the application of EWPs in its construction processes. Although challenging, undertaking this process is worthwhile, especially if we aspire to align with sustainable trends.
