- Type Article
Various matrials are used in prefabricated construction, such as wood based and non-wood based materials. Climate of the environment does not influence each material in the same manner. This information should be taken in consideration as early as project making phase, where an optimal material for a prefabricated wood structure should be choosen whose propperties will satisfy given requirements for a longer period of time. This paper will present materials used in prefabricated construction, construction requirements, influence of environmental factors on materials. On top of all that an algorithm that helps choose optimal material for prefabricated wood construction will be presented
