Applications
 


Exterior Wall Panels
Edge-glued K1multiplan guarantees maximum dimensional stability and dimensional tolerance like no other 3-layer panel. It is, therefore, particularly suitable for use in the field of exterior wall panelling, either in domestic spruce or Siberian larch.

     K1multiplan is a three-layer solid timber panel which is approved for static load purposes by the Institute of Structural Engineering (IfB) (Z-9.1-242). The structural panel is characterised by an extraordinarily high load-bearing capacity and dimensional stability. It is versatile and flexible in its dimensions - thicknesses from 20 to 75 mm and lengths up to 24 m. K1multiplan is suitable for load-bearing and bracing uses in addition to use as exterior wall panels. The panels are made from selected domestic spruce and durable Siberian larch.

   

Curved Plane Load-Bearing Elements
The special feature of the innovative architecture at the Lake Constance stadium in Bregenz is its lightness and transparency. The wing-like, double-shell timber elements measuring 4.4 m x 17 m cantilever out over 8 m on the supports and lend the structure a dynamic presence.
                 
   

                 
      Acoustic Panels Including Bracing
Extreme climatic conditions such as temperature and humidity are no problem at all for K1multiplan. Even the acoustic requirements at the Dornbirn ice rink were solved to perfection with the help of an individual hole pattern.
    
                 


Curved Box Panel Elements
K1multiplan copes with exceptional requirements. The box panel shell of the Fisser mountain railway is subject to loads of 700 kg/m2 of snow and is still only 30 cm thick.
    

Cantilevered Roofs
Large roof projections, high snow loads: This is where K1multiplan proves its strength. It fulfils a load-bearing function and is a design element at the same time.
    

Load-Bearing Roof Elements
There is no better alternative for load-bearing roof or floor elements, in residential or hall construction, than K1multiplan. It is even possible to realise exceptional architectural designs economically and with versatility by fingerjointing the already large standard formats into panels up to 24 m long.
                 


   

Special Shapes with Maximum Load-Bearing Capacity
The excellent strength and high load-bearing capacity of K1multiplan enables it to be used in many special structures, e.g. as a curved segment in domed structures, as I-beams in plane load-bearing structures or as CNC-machined panels in exhibition construction.
