Overview
We have developed bespoke all-timber connections for several of our projects.
On PJ Currie Dinosaur Museum, we created an all-plywood structural node formed of CNC'd layers stacked on top of each other and reinforced with long wood screws. These giant timber nodes weighed thousands of pounds, and connected up to eight Glulam beams and columns coming in at different angles.
On Boreal Center we used Ipe hardwood rounds to turn the kingpost truss cables around the corner - a unique way of approaching something typically done using steel.
Our involvement
StructureCraft develops project-specific timber connections as part of the structural design and detailing scope.
