School Complex Chrüzacher

2017, Bassersdorf

At the initiative of Timbatec, the new school complex in Bassersdorf produced even more timber than planned. Originally, only the walls of the gym were to be made of timber, but the roof of concrete. Timbatec also proposed to build the roof in timber construction in order to save costs.

The Werkhof of the A16 motorway

2017, Loveresse BE

Liquid concrete for staircase
24.06.2019
In large construction projects, construction workers often concrete the stairwell core first. Carpenters then mount the prefabricated wooden components on it. Timbatec reversed this sequence during the construction of Lokstadt in Winterthur. The wooden structure is erected, then liquid concrete is filled in. This saves time and money.
