The term wood refers to the stems and roots of trees and other woody plants. It is an organic material made of porous and fibrous structural tissues. Wood enables living trees to stand erect, and transport water and nutrients. The term can also refer to other materials engineered from wood, wood chips or fiber. Engineered wood products are used in the construction of commercial and residential buildings as structural and aesthetic materials. Even in buildings made of other materials, wood is an indispensable supporting material. A detailed explanation of the various applications of wood in civil engineering is included in this book. There has been rapid progress in this field and its applications are finding their way across multiple industries. The contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject.
