The simplicity of construction: The wood beams, joists, and studs are cut to size on-site, as some other construction materials.
Speed of construction: The frame elements can be use prefabricated, allowing for greater details control and less construction time.
Sustainability: Unlike concrete and steel, Wooden buildings are made from renewable resources, especially North American trees.
Carbon-capture benefits: Trees remove carbon from the air throughout their life cycle, returning that captured carbon to the soils and the atmosphere when they eventually decompose.
Insulation: Compared to other materials like glasses, steel, and concrete, wood has low-thermal conductivity–in other words, it heats and makes for an energy-efficient home.
Improved air the quality: Some studies indicate the air quality in a wood building is better, with fewer toxic emissions than other construction materials.
