Research On The Steel-wood Joints In Modern Wood Architecture

With issuing and implementing of series of wood construction design rules and wood construction related policies in recent years,wood construction faces new development opportunities.Modern wood architecture development has encountered problems,like poor joint design,lack of joint artistic expression and so on,because of missing construction market for years;improving joint design has become an important step to full display the wood architecture beauty with structural design and space design together.This essay firstly defines the steel-wood joint and expounds its basic characteristics.Then it analyzes the performance characteristics of modern steel-wood joints by summing up the evolution of modern wood structure types and the development history of wood construction connection nodes.Combining material and skill the two technological factors together,which affect the construction of steel-wood joints,this essay concludes the types of steel-wood joints in modern wood architecture.Based on that,through five design methods of exaggeration,micro-difference,variation,repeat and echoes,this essay at final analyzes the joints' artistic performance explained from five aspects that are structural logical representation,constructional logical representation,mechanical logical representation,cultural representation and space art effects representation.
