Openly exterior walls consist of a conventional wood-frame structure clad with hempcrete from CANCRET Materials . The wall structure is 44 cm thick (18 cm/20 cm/6 cm).

A particular advantage of this wall construction method is the use of a mobile mixing plant, which can be flexibly installed in nearby facilities belonging to timber builders or field factories. This significantly shortens transport distances, which not only lowers costs but also significantly reduces CO2 emissions.

The prefabricated wall elements are then assembled as a whole on site using a crane, which speeds up the construction process, saves costs and at the same time increases the efficiency and sustainability of the building project.

A plastered wood fiberboard is used for the exterior insulation of the infilled wood-frame elements

Openly partition walls consist of (non-load-bearing) wood-frame walls that are clad with two layers of 12.5 mm clay-based panels and then plastered.

This construction method not only offers outstanding technical properties in terms of sound insulation and fire protection, but is also characterized by ecological advantages. As a renewable raw material, wood stores CO₂ and therefore actively contributes to reducing the CO₂ footprint. At the same time, clay building boards have a regulating effect on the indoor climate by absorbing excess moisture and releasing it again as required, which contributes to a pleasant and healthy living atmosphere.

The combination of wood and clay supports a sustainable construction method that not only conserves resources, but also significantly improves the quality of living thanks to natural and pollutant-free materials. These environmentally friendly building materials promote energy efficiency and create a healthy, low-pollutant living environment.

Openly interior walls are constructed using traditional drywall. The system features a 10-centimeter wooden stud frame that is sheathed with a 12.5-millimeter clay board and then plastered.

Alternatively, 12-cm hemp bricks with approximately 2 cm of base plaster on each side can be used.

Plaster:

The use of lime putty as a plastering material offers numerous advantages for the indoor climate. Thanks to its natural mold-inhibiting and moisture-regulating properties, it makes a significant contribution to a healthy and pleasant living atmosphere. Swamp lime is also antibacterial and breathable, making it ideal for combining with hemp bricks, which themselves have similar diffusion-open and moisture-regulating properties.

Clay plaster:
This is ideal for clay building panels, but it must be applied in two coats and is more susceptible to damage. (Maintenance of rental apartments)
