Platform Construction
Scotts Timber Frame uses a platform construction method to erect timber frame. Each storey is framed with floor to ceiling height wall panels. Floor zones are constructed to create a platform from which the next storey can be constructed. Trusses can be craned into position separately or given enough site space, erected in banks at ground level and craned into position.
Teamwork
We can step into a project at any stage – assisting throughout; from estimating to initial engineering and design specifications to manufacturing and finally to cranage and installation on-site, providing the same first class, experienced service to your build.
Teamwork is particularly important – from joiners to crane operators – meaning we can schedule all builds accurately, and manage every aspect centrally, allowing us to be both flexible and reliable. This central coordination helps to reduce overall build costs.
ADDITIONAL SOLUTIONS
We also offer the following additional solutions for timber frame:
- Complete Supply and Fit packages for windproof and watertight homes; roofs ready for tiling and houses ready for first fixing.
- Our own fleet of delivery vehicles, and provision of cranage, improving site safety, flexibility on timings whilst reducing overall build times, costs and on-site storage
- Treatment to ensure the longevity of all exposed wood products in home building – all structural timbers we use are preserved in accordance with BS 5268 (part 5) code of practice for preservative treatment of structural timber.
- Quality Assurance – with all components of our timber frame buildings manufactured to a high quality and tolerance, in a controlled factory environment, all timbers are kiln dried and treated to protect them from insect attack and decay.
More and more developers, contractors and architects are realising the advantages and benefits of timber frame over traditional brick and block construction.
