Our two-story house is built on a REINFORCED CONCRETE FOUNDATION. Atop this foundation is a sturdy reinforced concrete frame, consisting of:
✔️columns: 300x300mm;✔️monolithic flooring.
This robust and durable construction is engineered to withstand various loads, from prolonged and short-term to occasional, following the principles applied in constructing multi-story buildings of 20 floors or more.
The reinforced concrete frame is combined with a wooden frame filled with the Hemp Power, an insulation layer made of hemp shives, resulting in a wall thickness of 400mm.
The entire reinforced concrete frame is clad with Hemp Power on the exterior, ensuring a completely insulated building envelope and eliminating thermal bridges.
The external walls, made of Hemp Power, are finished with a decorative vapor-permeable plaster that meets all technological requirements. Interior finishing follows the same standards. The roof, in this case, has a pitched design. It is constructed of a wooden rafter frame and insulated with 300mm-thick Hemp Power, and is covered with bituminous tiles, again in compliance with all technological requirements.
