Efficiency of processing soft hardwood for housing construction

Abstract

The article is devoted to the substantiation of the effectiveness of the use of soft hardwood. It is proved that the presence of certain strength indicators, good thermal insulation and environmental properties, provides the possibility of wider use of this wood in civil engineering in the production of glued wooden structures, and the cultivation of soft hardwood is of particular interest to forestry, due to the fastest, compared with other species, formation of aboveground wood pulp on regenerated agricultural lands. It is proved that to increase the efficiency of using soft hardwood, it is necessary to create new types of products with better performance properties than existing materials and construction products. The economic efficiency of complex processing of soft hardwood wood has been established, defined as the average annual economic effect from the production of new types of materials and products with improved performance indicators, depends on the volume of products sold, the cost of changing the operational characteristics of products due to the use of new production technology. © 2025 Author(s).
