The Principle and current
method of construction is to use machined fir wood wall elements
of
a sufficient thickness to be structurally integral to the
building, the wall elements are weather proof tongue and
groove. |
|
These provide a basic standard of thermal and sound
insulation.
The same raw material
type is used for the entire roof structure and floor boards but using
different gauges and profiles. View

The roof is tiled using felt
shingles available in five colours giving a near natural look, durable
maintenance free finish.
The interior finish is of a planed natural timber, but can be decorated by
our customer.

Our fir is bought from Northern Europe and is slow grown for stability and
performance with consistent quality.
All Scandinavian countries
governmental policies require sustainable forestation of timber.
New build standard insulation
materials are used in the roof and sub floor to bring the
overall thermal performance of the building to equal domestic
standards.
We use Eco Friendly
products throughout, but with a practical specification for this
type of structure. For more

Window frames and doors are
again fir, sometimes laminated, all windows and doors are double glazed as a
basic standard, and low emission glass can be specified as an
upgrade.
All timber is kiln dried before
machining, to the relevant level of moisture content for our
climate, ensuring that the building settles in gradually as it
dries out over time.

Our installation process
includes all weather facing components being Water Repellent treated,
this process provides the first stage of the buildings life long
maintenance regime to be carried out by our customer.

We manufacture a suitable base
chassis for new buildings using pressure treated timbers and
adjustable galvanised steel piles positioned at load
bearing points. This system causes minimal environmental
impact, no waste, or need for messy concrete.
The building sits on the base
on a pressure treated sole plate to keep damp away also allowing
air circulation and vapour to evaporate, the floor sits on
pressure treated bearers.
High quality door and window
furniture and mechanisms are used with insurance grade locks
fitted.
