This paper aims to present an ecological solution for creating a long-living structure using wood and eco-friendly concrete. Nowadays, it is an imminent need to reduce the use of non-renewable natural resources and, at the same time, to minimize the negative impacts of waste production from the construction sector. As a result, the option of reusing and reintroducing materials in production cycles in order to form totally different products becomes more common day by day. Even if wood is a hugely capable civil engineering material, the area of untreated pile situated above ground water level is vulnerable. This problem can be found in salty water resorts, as in the case of Oglinzi Baths located in Neamt County. A proper solution for solving this problem could consist of using an already patented concrete that has in composition recycled glass aggregates and, moreover, has outstanding durability properties. This mixed piles structure can be a sustainable alternative benefiting from two commonly used materials and local resources.
