A timber stud wall consists of a horizontal cross-section of wood at the bottom, the threshold on which studs are placed at the distance of the construction grid. Together with a stiffening planking and the frame (horizontal timber cross-section at the top)
Timber frame construction allows almost anything in terms of design, as long as you stick to the construction grid on which it is based.
Timber stud walls / timber frame construction walls are characterised by flat components. In spatial formation and statics, they act as discs
: standardised construction timbers are offered. Cross-sections measuring 6 x 12cm and 6 x 16cm are particularly common. Sleepers, uprights and frames are usually made of solid structural timber (KVH). The stiffening planking is made of wood-based panels with a thickness of approx. 20mm. Among other things, OSB boards, construction veneer plywood panels, three-layer boards, hard wood fibreboards and gypsum boards are used here. The insulation is inserted into the spaces in the stud level.
The timber frame construction is usually adapted to a construction grid of 62.5 cm. Higher center distances are possible. Also, if statically necessary, more can be inserted between the regular stands. Wall connections are also possible at any point by inserting additional stands.
The mechanical connection to each other is made by means of screws or nails.
In order to dispense with cost-intensive steel connections, connections are increasingly being used that are reminiscent of traditional carpentry constructions. These compounds also have advantages in terms of dimensional accuracy and strength values. At the same time, steel-free joints are interesting for ecological construction.
an alternative to a storey-by-storey construction, it is possible to erect wall elements of up to 4 storeys high, to which floor ceilings are then hung.
During production, all intermediate steps are possible, from erection on the construction site to factory prefabrication with ready-to-use surfaces.
