Wood is a sophisticated and noble construction material, used in construction for hundreds of years and providing an original healthy microclimate. However, until now, it was not possible to build more than several storey wooden structures, because conventional methods of building frame houses did not allow it. This process has changed significantly – the new method of prefabrication of wooden panels offered by Tadeks Fertig Haus, otherwise known as CLT (cross-laminated timber), means that “solid timber” ensures the construction of structures with even greater load-bearing capacity and strength.
CLT (multilayer panels) – are large-format massive panels made of cross-laminated timber (CLT), which are used as load-bearing and partition walls, as well as possibly for ceilings.
As a building material, CLT (glulam) is a rather new product. The beginnings of work related to this technology began in Switzerland and Austria in the mid-90’s. Because the panels are lighter than cement and can be lifted using lighter lifts and fewer workers, construction can be done faster, resulting in lower costs. The building is made of ready-made elements on the construction site, while the panels themselves are prefabricated in the plant, i.e. in a specific and controlled environment.
