Osaka Timber Association Building

Outline
Office of Osaka Lumber Brokers Cooperative Association. To realize the use of wood in the structure in a dense urban area, a fire-resistant glued laminated wood "NENWOOD" was used for the main structure, which has a one-hour fire resistance rating. It is a three-layered glued laminated timber with a burnout layer (larch) and an anti-burnout layer (larch and mortar) to protect the load-bearing parts.
