Examines the use and advantages of timber frame systems. Timber frame's design flexibility, good thermal and acoustic insulation, and sustainability credentials make it an ideal material for modern housebuilding, as shown in the Design for Manufacture competition. Innovation in timber frame technology has also led to its use in the construction of multi-storey apartment buildings. Expands on timber frame's suitability for multi-storey buildings and looks at how timber frame can minimise build times and deliver added value performance.
