Sažetak
Timber structures play important role in the area of cultural heritage. Timber frame structures of several churches form a part of the reductions of indigenous built by the Jesuits at the beginning of the 18th century in the jungle and between the political border of the Spanish colony and Portuguese. Similar structures were built in the most known Jesuitical Missions of the Paraguay, but they disappeared whereas the Bolivian ones still remain in foot. In villages the tradition inherited by the religious ones has survived and the churches are the central point of the community. Despite of simplicity of the structures, they are center of all manifestations and Christian’s festivities. Since 1990 the whole set has been declared World Heritage site by UNESCO. In Europe were common similar wood structures like tithe barns, markets, halls and even churches. There are many of them that still remain in foot. In this article typical skeleton timber frame subdivided into naves by rows of free standing wood columns in Bolivia and Europe are presented. Ground floors and longitudinal sections are given and discussed. Typical structural of both systems are presented, the columns stability and main structural differences between the two load bearing concepts are given. Moreover, to analyze and to compare similar structure in both continents, decorated style and the different types of traditional connections are shown.
