| Abstract |
There is currently a sufficient amount of wood in the territory of the Czech Republic, enabling its wide use in several areas. One of these is the construction industry. The idea of more extensive use of wood is also closely connected with the circular economy and thus with environmental protection. However, there are also certain restrictions relating to the construction of wooden buildings, e.g. from the point of view of fire safety. These restrictive requirements are related to the material and structural design of wooden buildings. As can be seen from research, the restrictive requirements for wooden buildings in the Czech Republic are generally comparable those in other countries. Research is currently being carried out in the Czech Republic addressing the possible modification of these restrictive requirements. The goal should be the wider use of wood in buildings even with the application of design standards addressing fire safety. Nevertheless, the continued application of the fire safety engineering procedures widely used in this area can still be assumed. |
