With this configuration, it is possible to realize a binding material 1 that can further improve strength.

[0037] The plurality of wooden pieces 10 are square timbers each measuring 45 mm to 450 mm square and 3000 mm to 10000 mm in the first direction X. The distance between the first bonding material 21 and the fourth bonding material 24 in the first direction X is 150 mm to 250 mm, and the distance between the fourth bonding material 24 and the second bonding material 22 in the first direction X is 150 mm to 250 mm. This configuration allows for the realization of a binding material 1 that can further improve strength.

[0038] The plurality of wooden pieces 10 are thinned cedar or cypress. With this configuration, it is possible to realize a bundled material 1 that can further improve strength.

[0039] At least one of the joining materials 20 is a piece of shredded Japanese cypress or zelkova. With this configuration, it is possible to realize a binding material 1 that can further improve the strength.

[0040] The binding material 1 can be configured as follows.

[0041] The wooden piece 10 is not limited to being a square timber measuring 45 mm to 450 mm square and 3000 mm to 10000 mm in dimension in the first direction X, but may have other shapes and dimensions.
