‘Timber Frame Construction’

A Buildingtalk guide

Start with the news release Basement solution to shoe-box homes from Concrete Centre, which we summarised at the time by saying "Guy Thompson, head of architecture and sustainability at The Concrete Centre, believes the provision of basements would help counter RIBA criticism of 'shameful shoe-box homes'.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Carbon neutral Stride Treglown office from Stride Treglown: "Stride Treglown architects install over 100sq.m of photovoltaics on the roof and south facade of their new Cardiff Office, making it Carbon Neutral".
 
In September 2011, we covered the news from SAS International - take a look at SAS International for acoustics at Dublin Airport which says: "SAS International worked with architects Pascall + Watson to design the acoustic ceiling solutions for the new Terminal 2 at Dublin Airport, Ireland.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Catnic, Catnic timber frame steel lintels in Exeter, as well as National consumer poll by super-fabricator Sierra from Epwin Group, and New Safedoors retail offer from Permadoor from Permadoor.
