STEICO wall constructions – Ecology, energy efficiency and security

Wall construction "Timber Frame"

STEICO wall construction with timber cladding

STEICO wall construction with render system

Thermal bridge-optimised frame construction with STEICO I-joists

12.5 mm platerboard interior wall cladding, 15mm OSB (taped for diffusion control).
Slim STEICO I-joists reduce thermal bridges and improve energy efficiency compared to solid timber cross-sections.
Ecological STEICO cavitiy insulation, e.g. STEICOflex for outstanding energy efficiency and maximum summer heat protection.
Rigid wood fibre insulation boards for cladding or render applications. Particularly water vapour diffusion open. External insulation layer provides thermal bridge free construction.
Timber cladding or render system

STEICO timber frame constructions – ideal for prefabrication

High performance timber frame construction with reduced materials, yet robust and future proof solutions can be easily achieved – whilst also incorporating advanced building physics principles.

STEICOwall I-joists are ideally suited for prefabrication. In the assembly halls of local timber construction companies, complete wall elements are prefabricated with the highest precision – protected from the weather and partly using state-of-the-art timber construction machinery. The innovative I-joists are particularly dimensionally stable, i.e. in contrast to naturally grown solid wood cross-sections, they do not tend to twist and do not exhibit any drying shrinkage. This precision is also noticeable in the finished wall.

STEICOwall I-joists are innovative wall studs for outstanding energy-efficient constructions. The slim double-T shape combines maximum load-bearing capacity with low material usage. This significantly reduces thermal bridges. At the same time, the slim shape allows the amount of insulation material in the wall to be increased. The use of web beams can significantly improve the U-value of a building component.

Frame construction with solid timber cross-sections and service void

Inner lining (12.5mm plasterboard, service void insulated with STEICOflex, 15mm OSB for vapour control).
140mm STEICO LVLor solid timber wall studs.
Ecological STEICO cavity insulation, e.g. STEICOflex insulation batts or STEICOzell air injected insulation.
Rigid wood fibre insulation boards, e.g. STEICOduo dry for cladding or render applications. Particularly water vapour diffusion open.
Render system, e.g. Baumit

Wall construction "CLT 1"

Cross laminated timber wall with multi-layer STEICO insulation structure

Internal finish and solid timber wall, e.g. CLT (Cross Laminated Timber), 95mm.
STEICOjoist I-joists used as spacers to form compartments for the insulation and carry the loads from the façade. Ideal for highly insulated structures, e.g. for passive houses.
Ecological STEICO cavity insulation, e.g. STEICOzell air injected insulation made of wood fibres. The most economical option for ecologically insulated walls.
Rigid STEICO wood fibre insulation boards for cladding or render applications, e.g. STEICOduo dry 40mm. Particularly water vapour diffusion open.
Render system, e.g. Baumit.

Wall construction "CLT 2"

Cross laminated timber wall with single-layer STEICO insulation structure

Internal finish and solid timber wall, e.g. CLT (Cross Laminated Timber), 95mm
Rigid STEICO wood fibre insulation boards for curtain walls or plaster application, e.g. STEICOprotect dry M 180mm. Particularly water vapour diffusion open.
Render system, e.g. Baumit.
