Traditional Masonry Façade in Low-Rise Timber Frame Construction
This course is on a low-rise timber-framed façade clad in traditional masonry. As the most popular envelope assembly, the masonry-clad insulated timber frame is often seen in residential ‘one-off’ houses or terraces. The unique appearance of the façade was achieved with all standard systems. Detail drawings, videos and explanatory clips explain buildability, performance, compliance and assembly-specific aspects, such as achieving energy and cost efficiency without façade engineers on a project.
