The look of “wood” provides warmth in a building design that cannot be achieved by masonry, metals or other building materials. Natural wood is a traditional option, but newer composite and synthetic products replicate the look of natural wood but offer superior color retention and life-cycle performance while requiring little to no maintenance. This learning unit will provide an in- depth overview of current “wood” design technologies, natural and synthetic.
Learning Objectives:
• Identify core materials of each current market technology
• Understand the life cycle performance of each technology
• Describe the surface burning characteristics and how to achieve code compliance
• Understand installation details and budget
