Flood Resistant Moonwood Production Process

8/2/2018

0 Comments

 
The production process goes further with respectful handling of the precious raw wood and the preservation that aligns with the earth's habitat. Holz100 stops and completes its production at the world's largest moonwood sawmill, a planing mill and two factories.

The basis for such high quality wood forms the total forest ecosystem which does not destroy it during harvesting, but becomes sustainably managed. Thoma has a certified network of forest farmers who are exclusive and traceable to the specifications of harvest.

The Thoma Principles of Natural Woodworking

The added value starts at Thoma with the ideal time of harvesting. In the right time, in addition to the season and the moon phase taken into account, forms the basis of a lasting quality of wood.

Flood Resistant Homes Made of Moonwood

Today, numerous scientific studies at the renowned Swiss Federal Institute of Technology University (ETH) in Zurich have confirmed the old knowledge about moonwood. Erwin Thoma has several books about moonwood and wrote of its health-giving effects.

Wood preservatives and toxic glues are replaced by wood harvested just at the right time: moonwood. He only works according to his own principles of natural wood processing. In the early years, this unconventional way brought great skepticism and resistance.

Flood and Fire Resistant Solid Wood Home

5/10/2018

0 Comments

 
The conclusion was that wood is three to five times more resistant to fire than concrete or bricks. A thick wooden block does not burn, but only becomes charred on the surface. Wood’s fantastic static properties are also retained much longer at extremely high temperatures in comparison with reinforced concrete structures, for example.

Flood Resistant Solid Wood Outer Wall Structure

5/10/2018

0 Comments

 
These related to the fire safety of the solid wood components, the air-tightness and safety of condensate formation within the outer wall structure, and the façade cladding. 
​
A fire safety concept was set out for the “WOODCUBE” in conjunction with the Technical University of Darmstadt.

Exemptions were granted on the design of the building components in the areas of burn rates, fire protection, and flue gas risk analysis.

​Due to the system-dependent features (dowelled cross-laminated timber elements and the outer wall structure with largely non-ventilated façades), specific checks had to be carried out as part of the planning process.

Flood Resistant Multistory Residential Buildings

5/10/2018

0 Comments

 
​The fire safety requirements for multistorey residential buildings are easily met at the “WOODCUBE”, although the relevant building regulations and technical rules do not yet stipulate this level of quality. The building was approved through individual allowances in all areas.

Flood Resistant Regulations for Wood Buildings

5/10/2018

0 Comments

 
Fire Safety

​Given that the floor height of the top (fourth) floor is approximately 12.20 m above the surface at the middle of the site, and the units in use are less than 400 m2 in size, the building meets § 2 (3) of the regulations for buildings in Class 4 (GK 4).

Flood Resistant Protective Wooden Structures

5/9/2018

0 Comments

 
​The timber used in “WOODCUBE” comes from local forests. By eliminating fire-protective encapsulation, the building components could remain visible on the inside. This meant that there was no need for additional coatings or protective structures, while the indoor climate benefits from a structure that is open to diffusion, with a higher heat storage capacity.

Flood Resistant Solid Wood Building Material

5/9/2018

0 Comments

 
The “WOODCUBE” is an example of a closed material cycle in construction.
​
The aim is a traceable, material-specific system without hazardous waste. The unglued, solid wood boarded flooring is sealed with linseed oil, while the façade cladding is made of untreated larch wood, the insulating material of soft wood fibreboard, and all of the sealing sheets and tapes have a cellulose base.

Flood Resistant Solid Wood Construction

​This is an important factor, as solid construction is not particularly sparing in its use of wood as a renewable resource. At present, this does not present any problems in Germany, as more wood is produced than is consumed. However, in future, and particularly in view of carbon storage and the availability of timber as a resource, the re-use of building elements for ends other than as fuel, as is prevalent today, will become more important.

At the end of the building’s life cycle, the resources could therefore be broken down into their different types and used again as building components or materials. This form of recycling represents another strand to the resource efficiency concept, as re-using the materials reduces resource consumption in the future.

Flood Resistant Renewable Recyclable Building

5/8/2018

The majority of the energy required for processing timber comes from renewable primary energy (the sun).

During the implementation of the project, great emphasis was placed on maximum recycling potential. Avoiding bonding and sandwich building elements meant that all levels could be divided up again.

Flood Resistant Renewable Building System

5/8/2018

The “WOODCUBE’s” concept is optimised with a view to saving non-renewable resources and ensuring that the building can be recycled at the end of its life span.
​
All of the building components were made of solid wood if this was technically possible.

Flood Resistant Wooden Residential Building

The “WOODCUBE” is the first five-storey residential building that does not use glue or fire- protective encapsulation. In addition, the building is carbon neutral: no insulating materials that require lots of energy to manufacture were used unless absolutely necessary. All of the building materials can also be disposed of singly or reused.

Resource Efficiency and Sustainability

​This urban timber building, which is free of toxins within the living area, can contribute to environmentally friendly and healthy living. In addition, there is scientific evidence that solid wood has a beneficial effect on the inhabitants.
