Loadbearing - timber frame
Drylining to external timber frame walls
Gyproc plasterboards and thermal
laminates are used as the internal lining to structural timber
frame walls. Buildings constructed from timber frames include new
houses and public / commercial developments, such as hotels and
nursing homes. Typical external wall constructions are comprised of
factory-produced timber panels and components to which a sheathing
board and breather membrane are attached. The frame is tied to the
external cladding using flexible wall ties.
