Non-glued timber products and construction techniques and solid wood products include timber products and construction techniques that are mechanically jointed, e.g. timber framing. This work area als

In timber construction, a large variety of glued timber and wood-based products are used for a wide range of uses. These include: glued laminated timber, glued solid timber, plywood, laminated veneer

Wood preservatives for preventive treatment are used to prevent infestation of wood and wood-based materials by insects, fungi and other wood-destroying organisms. Wood preservatives for curative trea

Wood-concrete composite systems consist of a timber element and a concrete slab that are joined together in a shear-resistant manner. The shear-resistant bond can be achieved, for example, using screw

Punched metal plate fasteners are metal plates with integral projections punched out in one direction perpendicular to the plate plane. They are used in timber construction to permanently connect timb

In carpentry joints, timber elements are permanently jointed by shaping – without additional mechanical fasteners. Timber construction

In timber construction, nailing plates are used as three-dimensional fasteners. EAD 130186-00-0603 provides the basis for affixing the CE marking to nailing plates. Mechanical fasteners in timber cons

In modified timber, the durability of the wood is improved by chemical or thermal treatment. Timber construction

Wood-based panels for use in construction include OSB, particleboards, cement-bonded particleboards, fibre boards, plywood, laminated veneer lumber and solid wood panels. A special form of solid timbe

An electric panel forms part of the electrical wiring system for safety systems required under the Building Codes. The functions of these systems must be maintained in case of fire for the required du

Fire-resistant enclosures for electric panels separate measuring devices and electric panels from required stairwells and spaces between required stairwells and exits or encase electric panels for saf

Staples are used in timber construction to permanently connect elements (e.g. wood-based panels, gypsum boards, wood-fibre insulation products) with timber elements. Mechanical fasteners in timber con

In timber construction, screws are used to permanently connect timber elements to other elements or to reinforce timber elements. In this work area, you will also find threaded rods and screws for ext

Fire- or temperature-resistant smoke extraction ducts and powered smoke exhaust ventilators are part of powered smoke control systems and serve to discharge smoke from the building in case of fire. Fo

Smoke detection and triggering devices are used for controlling and triggering fire and smoke dampers in air ducts of HVAC systems. Following smoke detection and the corresponding signalling, the fire

Smoke dampers are shut-off devices for preventing the spread of smoke via air ducts. They shut automatically after being triggered by a triggering mechanism, which is actuated upon detection of smoke

Systems for treating stormwater run-off containing mineral oil serve to purify run-off from motor vehicle traffic areas to such an extent that the effluent may subsequently be infiltrated into the gro

Systems for limiting hydrocarbons in mineral oil containing wastewater with biodiesel, bio heating oil and ethanol contents are systems for treating wastewater containing up to 100% biodiesel and bio

These systems serve to treat stormwater run-off from transformer stations and retain insulating oil (transformer oil). Systems for limiting hydrocarbons in mineral oil containing wastewater
