Stadthaus
Stadthaus is a nine-storey residential building in Hackney, London. It is thought to be the second tallest timber residential structure in the world, after the Forte apartment complex in Melbourne Australia.〔()〕〔In 2007, a 7-story residential building in Berlin claimed to be the tallest wooden house, cf. http://www.e3berlin.de/holz/〕 It was designed in collaboration between architects Waugh Thistleton,〔(Waugh Thistleton )〕 structural engineers Techniker,〔(Techniker )〕 and timber panel manufacturer KLH.〔(KLH )〕
Stadthaus is the first high-density housing building to be built from pre-fabricated cross-laminated timber panels. It is the first building in the world of this height to construct not only load-bearing walls and floor slabs but also stair and lift cores entirely from timber.
==Ecological aspects==
Waugh Thistleton are committed to reducing the environmental impact of architecture . In the endeavour to build buildings that reduce the impact on the planet, the Practice see it as vital not only to consider the energy usage over the life of the building but also the energy expended in producing the building. For some years Waugh Thistleton have been researching the use of solid timber structures in housing to replace the accepted route of concrete and steel.
Timber stores 0.8t of carbon dioxide within 1 cubic metre and is a replenishable material. In comparison the production of both concrete and steel are one-way energy intensive processes that release large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The panels can also be easily demounted and used as an energy source at the end of the building’s life. So the case for timber was made to the client and (London Borough of Hackney's ) planning department both in terms of the environmental consideration and potential economies to cost and programme.
