Stakleno-drvena konstrukcija ovješene fasade

TimberCW is an innovative structurally glazed timber curtain wall system entirely comprised of glued laminated timber profiles incorporated in a fully prefabricated unitised curtain wall design. The system eliminates aluminium elements whilst maintaining high weathertightness performance. Specialised corner connections and stainless steel bracketry has been developed and laboratory tested. The target in the research of the TimberCW was to apply the current state of the art technology in aluminium to wooden based frames and to improve the energy performance of the building envelope. The developed system is an environmental friendly, with physical, structural and aesthetic performance equal to or better than equivalent aluminium systems.
