From shou-sugi-ban to acetylated wood – a clean, green future in wood preservation | The Creative Flux

by sbrothier
Since humans began using wood, the material has always been subject to more or less successful methods of wood preservation. Alexander the Great is said to have soaked wood used for bridge building in olive oil. The Romans brushed their ship hulls with tar. Tar was also extensively used by the Scandinavians which makes sense, as their lands to a large extent are covered in dense pine forests. Tar is dry distilled from finely split pine wood in so called “tar kilns”. According to Wikipedia, tar has probably been used in Scandinavia since the Iron Age. It remained the most popular method for hundreds of years, and from the 14th century on, it was one of Sweden’s most important exports. Production didn’t cease until the beginning of the 20th century when the wood tar was replaced with chemicals.

焼杉 伝統的製作技法

by sbrothier
建物の外壁材に使用する伝統的材料「焼杉(やきすぎ)」。昔は多くの建物がこの「焼杉」で仕上げられていました。あらかじめ表面を焦がし、炭化状にしておくことで初期の着火性を低くし、耐火性能を持たせます。また、風雨にさらされる杉板の耐久性を高める役割も担います。 先人の知恵によって伝統的に使用されてきた「焼杉」ですが、最近は法規制や建物デザインの洋風化などによりその数は減っています。しかし香川の地においてはまだまだ使える場面も多く、「国産材を使う」という観点からも積極的に使用していきたいと考えています。何といっても無垢の木材ですから、全くの天然素材です。

shou-sugi-ban: Re-inventing shou-sugi-ban

by sbrothier
Shou-sugi-ban is the ancient Japanese technique of burning Sugi, or Japanese Cypress, for use as a siding on the exterior of buildings. The first reason to do so was to protect against fire. It also turned out to make it more durable. The technique is still used on places like Naoshima, in Japan. The Japanese architect Terunobu Fujimori made some beautiful projects this way and inspired many of us.

japanese charred wood technique The ancient Japanese technique of charring wood to preserve it for use as exterior siding. Traditionally, Japanese Cyprus was used, but now we’re seeing this technique applied to cedar, and other woods. We’re also seeing the wood being utilized in new and interesting ways beyond exterior siding.

Shou-Sugi-Ban is de traditionele Japanse techniek om ‘Sugi’ of Japanse cipres te branden om hout te verduurzamen. Het werd vooral gebruikt voor gevelbekleding. De oorspronkelijk reden om het hout te branden was om de dicht op elkaar gebouwde houten huizen te beschermen tegen brandoverslag. Brandpreventie dus. Het bleek echter ook een erg goede bescherming tegen ongedierte en schimmels. In sommige plekken als Naoshima in Japan wordt het nog steeds toegepast.

Shou-sugi-ban Wood - Travis Creek Wood Products

Shou-sugi-ban is the ancient Japanese technique of burning Sugi, or Japanese Cypress, for use as a gorgeous and unusual siding on the exterior of buildings… this textured charcoal finish is accomplished by binding two planks of wood around an interior layer of stuffed newsprint, lighting the paper on fire and allowing it to burn the length of the wood for 7 minutes before extinguishing the fire with cold water… next, artisans scrub each board with wire brushes, taking off the most charred wood and embedding the grain with the ashes… after each board has dried, they are individually rubbed with natural oils to coat and preserve the finish… this act of charring and coating the wood is said to protect the cedar or cypress siding from weather, pests and rot for 80 years…

CAST architecture blog · Shou-sugi-ban–charred cedar siding

by sbrothier (via)
I am building a little painting studio in my backyard, and wanted to try out ‘shou-sugi-ban,’ a traditional japanese technique of burning the wood siding to create a thin charcoal layer to protect the wood, in lieu of staining/painting. I tied three boards together in a triangle with baling wire, and stood the bundles on a small fire.  The fire wicks up the inside of the bundle after about a minute, with flames coming out of the top after about two minutes.  I then flipped the bundle, burnt from the other end for another 30-45 seconds.

Treated Wood : Tallgrass Prairie Pavilion

Architect Terunobu Fujimori is renowned for celebrating the architectural history of his native Japan by creating unique structures out of materials like charred wood. Shou-sugi-ban is an ancient Japanese technique for preserving and finishing wood that creates a distinctive black coating, and seals the wood against rain, insects and rot. Many old Japanese houses use Shousugi-ban for their external timber cladding. Traditionally, the textured charcoal finish is achieved by burning sugi, or Japanese cypress. The process today still involves charring the wood (to varying degrees based on desired effect), cooling it, cleaning it and finishing it with a natural oil. Many modern applications of the technique (for siding, paneling and flooring) use Douglas fir, yellow pine, cyprus, and oak species, often from North American suppliers specializing in the technique.

Having researched for more techniques to achieve different finishes on timber decking and cladding we decided to use the Shou-Sugi-Ban technique Shou-sugi-ban 焼杉板, or burnt sugi board is a Japanese technique of creating timber cladding that should last over 80 years. Sugi is known as Japanese cedar, Instead of sugi, our wood species are Belinga. Old traditional Japanese houses use shou-sugi-ban for their external timber cladding, although rarely used now (replaced by manmade plastic or composite). The sugi was burnt to resist rot and fire. Supposedly it’s difficult for something already burnt to a charcoal finish to catch fire again.

Second to None | Dwell

For architect Pieter Weijnen of Amsterdam firm Faro, building his own low-energy home (featured in our July/August 2008 issue) was just the start. A year later, he broke ground on a new home for himself, partner Renske Felkema, and their children, Puck and Finn. House 2.0, located on the manmade archipel­ago of IJburg, fine-tunes the design of the first house, but it goes further in energy efficiency and sustainability: “It’s a passive house,” says Weijnen. “We’ve got the biggest triple-glazed window in the Netherlands and a geothermal heating ex­change system. There is a wood-burning stove; a rainwater tank; and—a bit unusual for the city—a wind turbine on the roof.” Add to this a whole tree used instead of a girder, adobe walls instead of plaster, and a charred-wood facade, and it’s clear that this isn’t your run-of-the-mill eco-house. “You have to take risks once in a while,” says Weijnen.

An Ancient Fire-Resistant Wood-Finish That is Green…and Very Elegant | Home Design Find

by sbrothier (via)
There is an ancient traditional Japanese wood finish to make houses resist fire and rot. The finish is based on the discovery by the ancient Japanese that it is harder for something already charcoaled to catch fire again. I’ll take their word for that; I had no idea. Here’s how to do it. The first step is to…
