Wooden Roof of a Large Space Truss [*Free gift of a collection of architectural examples of wooden facilities*]
The "Double Shield Panel," a wooden truss combined with wooden composite insulation panels, adopted for the roof of Kumamoto Airport, enables the realization of large wooden spaces!
At Kumamoto Aso Airport's passenger terminal building, we have adopted a wooden truss called "Connect Truss," made from cedar sourced from Kumamoto Prefecture, and a wooden composite insulation panel known as "Double Shield Panel (DSP)" for the roof section. It can also accommodate mixed structures◎ A large space can be realized with wood! How about considering the roof structure of a building with "wood," taking into account people and the environment? 【Advantages of Wooden Roofs】 ◆ Does not limit the choice of lower structures ◆ Utilization of domestic materials ◆ Lightweight framework ◆ Contribution to SDGs *We are currently offering a free collection of architectural examples!

basic information
Characteristics of Wooden Roofs ◆ No restrictions on the substructure Compatible with various structures such as reinforced concrete, steel frame, and wooden structures. The passenger terminal building at Aso Kumamoto Airport is a mixed structure with steel frame. ◆ Use of domestic materials At Aso Kumamoto Airport, over 800m3 of Kumamoto Prefecture cedar is utilized. To effectively use domestic forest resources, it is also possible to accommodate domestic materials. ◆ Lightweight structure Wooden structures are lighter compared to reinforced concrete and steel structures. This can also lead to a slimmer foundation design. ◆ Contribution to SDGs By using wood, CO2 emissions during construction can be significantly reduced. The use of locally sourced materials is also possible. 【Aso Kumamoto Airport Passenger Terminal Building】 Operator: Kumamoto International Airport Co., Ltd. Design supervision: Nikken Sekkei Ltd.
