They have been used in the construction of large holding tanks and penstocks at hydro power developments. They are also used in the construction of certain musical instruments with rounded bodies or backs. == See also == Rubicon Hydroelectric Scheme, which has wood stave penstocks on operating power stations Lake Margaret Power Station, which had a wood stave penstock replaced in 2010 == References == - [[Building Construction/Construction & Materials/Building Material/Timber and Wood Products]] - [[History and Theory/World History/Medieval Architecture]] - [[Building Construction/Structural Systems/Concrete Structures]] - [[History and Theory/World History/Contemporary Architecture]] - [[Building Construction/Construction & Materials/Building Material/Insulation Materials]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 08 - Building Services/Section 5B - Escalators and Moving Walks]] - [[Urban and Planning/Town & Country Planning]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 06 - Structural Design/Section 2 - Soils and Foundations]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 08 - Building Services/Section 5A - Lifts]] - [[Urban and Planning/Public Space]] == See also ==
