A Process of Disassembly

1. Creating a structural core from fire resistant CLT components with the de-constructable glulam frame assembled around.
2. Rest of the timber frame assembled with the SIP floor panels as each floor gets constructed.
3. Demountable wall SIP’s with the designated external cladding is attached to the frame, holding no structural significance of its own, simply for creating the building’s thermal envelope.
4. SIP wall and roof panels in place with the option for interchangeable surfaces
5. Internal partition walls in place with service systems threaded through building structure. Industrial look for light finishes
6. Building Inhabitation of the variety of spaces.
7. Disassembly upon requirement, demountable SIP panels then Timber Glulam frame then CLT core structure.
8. Material reuse and relocation, with the incorporation of a materials passport, into a range of other projects or rebuilt again to the same library in a new location.
