  Depends on what you want to do. Wood buildings have more limits in terms of height and structural load. But wood usually means much lower emissions and easier recycling of the building. Of course fire safety is another issue. In comparision to steel, wood does surprisingly well, as a thick wooden column can be burning on the outside, but maintain its load bearing capability on the inside. steel transmits the heat to its inside quickly and looses its stability faster.
