Wooden Warehouse Using the Wood Big Span Method

A large-span wooden warehouse is realized with a low volume of materials to keep costs down. Wooden structures are being chosen for large-scale warehouses and factories.

The "Wood Big Span Method," which uses high-durability and high-strength wooden trusses, allows for the construction of warehouses with large spans and high ceilings even in wooden structures. According to the 2019 Construction Start Statistics Survey Report, when comparing the construction unit prices of various structures, it is evident that wooden warehouses are more than 10% cheaper than steel-framed warehouses. Additionally, while the useful life of depreciable assets is set shorter compared to other structures, it does not necessarily mean that the lifespan of wooden buildings is shorter than that of other structures. The "useful life for depreciation" is merely a guideline; for warehouses, the depreciation period for steel structures (with steel thickness over 4mm) is 31 years, while wooden structures can be depreciated in less than half that time, at 15 years. 【Features】 ■ Can be used as a commercial warehouse ■ Achieves a 4m eave necessary for loading and unloading, and a ceiling height of 7m ■ May be eligible for subsidies *You can view case materials from the "PDF Download."
