I am sure there is maintenance, but the oldest wood building in the world is from 800 AD.
At any rate, we have been building out of wood for centuries. Properly treated and with a good roof over it, I don’t see why it would waste away much more than most other structures. Sure stone or brick would last longer.
I dunno, thats a lot of pounding, vs guys with nail guns going blam blam blam. But I admit my knowledge is limited on this stuff.
That’s a fair point. Don’t they also have prefab construction using modern materials that cuts down on cost? Course no one wants pre-fab, they want “custom”. I still don’t see this having wide spread use. Perhaps though it will lead to labor saving construction using different materials?
