木材 is one of 32 materials in this atlas, grouped under ceramics: history, structure, measured properties, process routes, uses, safety and market — not a product catalogue.
Scores compare 木材 with the rest of the atlas on strength, heat, fire behaviour, insulation, workability and circularity. They are editorial, not certificates.
Seven chapters follow. Fire and insulation claims name test families (Euroclass, ASTM E84, ISO 5660, KS F) rather than inventing a single safety number.
よくある質問
Is 木材 non-combustible?
Declared reaction class in this atlas: D–B depending on product / treatment. Assemblies still need resistance tests.
Does 木材 insulate?
Thermal mark 56/100 versus the atlas. Conductivity note: ~0.1–0.2 W/m·K along vs across grain.
What is the density band?
0.3–0.8 g/cm³ typical
How is it made?
Origin story: Palaeolithic tools; CLT 1990s Austria (Global forests / Graz).
Can it be recycled?
Circularity mark 76/100 — editorial, route-specific.
Typical melting or failure heat?
chars ~200–300 °C; does not melt
What should it be paired with?
steel: The incombustible frame alternative.
Where is it specified?
Buildings, transport, energy and consumer goods — see the uses chapter.
