Architectural Magnificence of Oak


Oak has been relied upon as a robust building material for many centuries and has always been valued for its architectural magnificence. Today, using a combination of the tradition of the past with cutting edge modern methods and materials, we are able to complement modern architecture with such structures. The incorporation of a full or partially vaulted Oak ceiling can be an enormous benefit to the value of a property, maximising the available area so that the proportions of the building appear dramatic and enlarged. Oakmasters can supply and install King Post, Queen Post and Raised Collar or medieval style trusses as preconstructed triangular components, ready to be lifted into place on site. We can provide design consultancy services and advise on the appropriate location of trusses, section sizes, stylistics and layout. ...searchable archive at www.buildingconstructiondesign.eu


Brooktorkai quarter, securing a wide spanning glass roof and multi story windowed front without the fixings being visible. The revolutionary Hollo-Bolt creates immense opportunity for architectural design as the unique fixing is concealed within the steelwork with no protruding bolt head or nut. Architect GMP (Gerkan, Marg and Partners) designed the Brooktorkai quarter utilising clinker-brick facades as a reference to nearby historic buildings, while marrying with clean, modern lines of large glass enclosed open spaces. The prominent glazed feature of the Germanischer Lloyd building guarantees expansive views over the old warehouse district and creates a striking entranceway to the company’s new head office. The Lindapter M12 Hollo-Bolt Flush Fit was used to construct the glazing support frame with a connection design that included splice joints inside the adjoining pre-drilled SHS sections, allowing the fixings to be simply inserted and tightened with a torque wrench for a rapid installation. The cost effective solution required no specialist equipment or labour and dramatically less work at height in comparison to traditional welding or through-bolting methods. The resulting steelwork is not only structurally sound, but aesthetically pleasing, presenting a clean symmetrical appearance. Lindapter’s latest innovation merges the technical advantages of their distinguished Hollo-Bolt with the aesthetic benefits of a discreet fixing. The Hollo-Bolt is independently approved as a primary structural connection and is the only cavity fixing to feature in the SCI/BCSA joint publication ‘Joints in Steel Construction – Simple Connections’. ...searchable archive at www.buildingconstructiondesign.eu Tel: 01274 521 444 www.lindapter.com
