INTRODUCTION

The Mechanical properties and availability of wood have made it a natural material for building structures, furniture, tools, vehicles, and decorative objects. Worldwide it is used more than metal or plastic. Wood is a natural product and when used responsibly is a sustainable resource which need not result in damage to the environment. Forests can be protected by recycling and reusing the wood, using less wood and by supporting sustainable forest management All wood is composed of cellulose,lignin, hemicelluloses, and minor amounts (5% to 10%) of extraneous materials contained in a cellular structure. Wood comprises about 50% of cellulose which responsible for most of its mechanical properties.

Wood Types

It is customary to describe wood using the following terms. Of course there is some degree of overlapping in practice. Carpentry- applying to structural work in buildings and ships Timbering - applying to temporary work such as formwork for concrete, gantries and shoring Joinery -wooden structures inside buildings, such as doors and window frames Cabinetwork - cabinetry - making furniture

Wood framing, or light frame construction, is the assembly of dimensional lumber or engineered wood lumber that is regularly spaced and fastened together with nails to create floor, wall and roof assemblies. Wood is the most common material used within the construction industry today.

The sill plate is a wood member, typically made from treated wood, attached to the top surface of the foundation. Joists are fastened to the sill plate. Rim joists are a series of similar sized wood members which are placed around the outside of the floor structure. They are laid on their narrow end and attached to the sill plate. Floor joists are wood members or engineered wood products (typically the same size as the rim joists) which are placed on their narrow ends, spaced uniformly, and attached to the sill plate. The subfloor is attached to the floor joists, and they carry the floor loads to the load bearing walls. A header is made of multiple wood members attached to each other and is used to frame an opening in the floor assembly, interrupting the joists. Bridging consists of small wood members that are fastened between joists, providing lateral stability

INTRODUCTION OF WOOD FLORING

Wood floors are some of the most beautiful and warmest floors you can have in your home. And not only are they beautiful, but they're a good investment too. Homes with wood flooring have proven to have a higher resale value and sell faster than comparable homes without wood floors.Also, with some of the newer types of wood floors that are available, you can handle the installation yourself! Wood floors now come in a variety of types, species and finishes so you can find the right floor for your taste and budget.

Types of Wood Floors

Solid wood flooring

is exactly what the name implies: a solid piece of wood from top to bottom. The thickness of solid wood flooring can vary, but generally ranges from to 5/16. One of the many benefits of solid wood flooring is that it can be sanded and refinished many times. Solid wood flooring can be installed above or on grade

Engineered wood floors

are real wood floors that are manufactured using three to nine layers of different wood veneers. The sub layers can be of the same species, or of different species. The grain of each layer runs in different directions, which makes it very stable. This means that the wood will expand and contract less than solid wood flooring during fluctuations in humidity and temperature.
