| Abstract |
There are number of structural systems for timberframe houses, which differ in materials used in an external wall assembly and, in some cases more importantly, in level of pre-fabrication. Traditional systems would mainly consider light-frame (two-by-four) or heavy-frame (post and beam) structures built on site, or the same systems with minor alterations, but pre-fabricated into wall panels. The on-site systems require excessive manual labour and skills, while pre-fabricated panels put high demand on heavy machinery on site and are therefore limited to inaccessible places. The paper describes development of innovative wood based external envelope which should satisfy all aspects of requirements (strength, insulation, cost, safety). The system uses short-sized timber, usually considered as waste cut-off's, and is created by small 3D modules easily handled by workers. Thus innovative approach is significantly saving material and labour costs, and is effective for structures with difficult transport accessibility. The results describe the development of the low-cost system, together with the prototype, laboratory, in-situ testing and computer simulation in order to satisfy required procedures and standards. |
