The present invention relates to a method for producing an engineered wood, comprising the steps of: (a) breaking down a veneer to increase its porosity; (b) impregnating the veneer from step (a) with an adhesive material; (c) drying the veneer from step (b) to a predetermined moisture content level; (d) arranging a plurality of the veneers from step (c) in a mould; and (e) pressing the plurality of the veneers in the mould. The engineered wood has an appearance of natural timber, and is able to withstand extreme weather conditions and have minimum warping, rotting and termite infestation.

A substrate bonding method which enables forming a precision fine space using a method that is simpler and easier than conventional methods; and a laminated body production method that uses the substrate bonding method. This substrate bonding method includes disposing a first substrate on a photoresist pattern formed on a support film so as to bring the first substrate into contact with a surface of the photoresist pattern located on the side opposite to the support film, and pressure-bonding the support film, the photoresist pattern, and the first substrate; releasing the bonded support film after the pressure-bonding; and disposing a second substrate on the photoresist pattern so as to bring the second substrate into contact with the surface of the photoresist pattern located on the side opposite to the first substrate, and pressure-bonding the first substrate, the photoresist pattern, and the second substrate.
