With the winning proposal, Henning Larsen's goes beyond what one would expect a laboratory building to look like. B777 is immersed in nature, with biogenic materials and features a low-carbon design.
The largest wooden building in Europe is located in Munich's Olympic Park. In this building with its high wooden beams, high demands were placed on the facade glass, especially the glass in the roof level. Here you can find out which special glass was used there.
There has been a longstanding partnership between Remmers and Danish mechanical engineers Ceetec A/S. Now the companies have developed a follow up model to the Ceetec A250 painting machine for wood components.
A fully automatic CMA varnishing robot has recently been added to the modern machinery of Remmers' Wood Surface Competence Centre. The robot, installed by plant specialist Range + Heine, has an innovative 3D recognition system. Find out why this is so important for homogenous layer thickness.
PU foam mistakes to avoid, R+T 2022 postponed again, water-based wood primer and a series with Fraunhofer ISE on building-integrated PV. These are our top stories of the week:
Remmers has developed two water-based one-pot coating systems especially for processing in the Vacumat system or in industrial series production with their extreme cycle times:
Remmers present Induline GW-390, a water-based primer for large-format wooden components. Here are more details:
The small town of Gundelsheim in Lower Frankonia now has a new public library. The building was constructed using a harmonious combination of traditional architecture and modern glass construction.
In the winter months, newly installed wooden windows are more likely to develop water bubbles in the paint of the exterior coating. This is usually due to unfavourable climatic conditions on the construction site. In addition to the proper application of the coating, effective ventilation helps to avoid damage and customer complaints.
Eurolam is known for its louvre windows made of an aluminium-polyamide composite. The debate about raw materials and sustainability has now prompted the supplier to switch to wood, a renewable raw material.
Manufactured and constructed according to the current state of the art, wooden windows are very durable building elements with very good structural-physical properties and excellent conditions for thermal insulation.
A mullion-transom facade consists of load-bearing profiles and is based on a construction principle that provides for the installation of all individual components on site. In practice, however, a certain degree of prefabrication is common.
The production of slim profiles for more daylight also poses challenges for machine manufacturers and suppliers. Homag offer a completely new window concept:
Gutmann Bausysteme and tool manufacturer Zuani TWT have jointly developed a new wood-aluminium window. With a 68x68mm wood cross-section, a complete window can now be built - even with an RC2 rating.
