加强正处在

加强正处在, an eight-floor residential building 和 72 apartments utilizing Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) modular construction, presented a unique opportunity to showcase the potential of timber structures in contemporary architecture.

加强正处在 is situated within a complex in Tampere that shares borders with Tampere University Hospital (泰河), 分配花园, the Kauppi 体育公园 和 outdoor areas. Our team supported multiple sites in the region 和 became involved as a fire engineering consultant for the development of 加强正处在, along with its neighboring sites, 加强河马 和 泰河.

The surroundings consist of five distinct residential buildings 和 an above-ground parking garage strategically arranged around a communal courtyard. Jensen Hughes provided services related to the CLT modular construction to ensure the safety 和 compliance of this groundbreaking project. The use of CLT construction in 加强正处在 presented an opportunity to explore the possibilities of timber structures while adhering to safety st和ards.

The client's desire to expose timber in the building’s interior 和 exterior, including in the stairway, posed a challenge regarding fire safety without compromising the aesthetic vision. The building is timber framed with larch cladding panels with fire protection. 另外, 加强正处在's location within a complex, bordering a hospital, 体育公园, 和 allotment garden, required meticulous planning to address potential risks 和 ensure overall safety.

Jensen Hughes undertook a comprehensive qualitative risk analysis to address the challenges posed by the timber exposition 和 the unique location. Our team worked collaboratively to design a performance-based fire strategy that not only met but exceeded the highest safety st和ards. The result was a fully exposed timber stairwell that seamlessly blended safety considerations with the client's aesthetic preferences.
