Setting the standard on detailing multistorey timber housing
Dennis Hauer
Architect DirectorFor increased understanding and the upskilling of the construction industry and to support the adoption of multistorey mass timber housing in the Netherlands, this project has created an open-access knowledge and guidance resource from data and technical details compiled from existing buildings.
An in-depth study and analysis of ten multi-storey mass timber residences focussed on the buildings’ structural, fire and acoustic performance, as well as broader design details. Research findings have captured twenty case studies, guidelines for mass timber design, and a set of design and technical details.
