Wooden structures in the historic port of Rijeka

Abstract
A review of the use of wood in construction of the historic port of Rijeka is given in the paper. Traditional use of wooden structures for floors and roofs can be seen in ancillary structures and early warehouses, while the first temporary storage units were also wooden skeletal structures. The Grain Silo, a veritable masterpiece of carpentry skill, can be singled out by its demanding and unusual structure, together with half-timber structures of Quarnero Bathhouse, and those of rowing clubs on the breakwater.
