ADVANTAGES
Excellent structural properties
Thanks to its outstanding structural properties M1 BSP crossplan
opens up new opportunities in modern timber construction.
The high load-bearing capacity with lower dead weight
allows tight dimensioning of the components even in large
span applications. This results in wall cross-sections well below
any other building materials. Consequently creating more
living space with the same outer dimensions.
The special cross-wise layered construction of M1 BSP crossplan
results in all-round load transfer that makes it ideal for
use as a panel or diaphragm. Point-supported structures or
projections across corners are unproblematic.
What’s more M1 BSP crossplan enables earthquake-proof
construction.
Outstanding environmental life cycle assessment
The raw material for the manufacture of M1 BSP crossplan
mainly originates from domestic forests. For generations,
these forests have been managed and tended according to
the principle of sustainability which means, therefore, our
raw material is not only always available but is also replanted
on a sustainable basis. This is also confi rmed by our 100 %
PEFC certifi cation.
In addition, timber is the only building material that is distinguished
by its positive contribution to the carbon footprint.
For this reason, building with timber constitutes an active
contribution to climate protection.
Recommended for environmentally compatible
architecture
Timber lends a pleasant ambience to rooms and is distinguished
by its visual appeal. It also conveys a sense of cosy
familiarity and warmth.
The perceived surface temperature of M1 BSP crossplan lies
signifi cantly above any other type of building material. Even
at lower room temperatures this leads to a pleasant perception
of temperature.
