This video explains why Americans like to use wood to build houses. The three main reasons are:
Availability: Wood is a readily available material in the United States, due to the country's large forests. Cost: Wood is a relatively inexpensive material to build with. Environmental factors: Wood is a renewable resource, and building with wood can help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The video also shows how a wooden house is framed, from the foundation to the roof.
