Week 9 This week we present our drawing of the case study. Furthermore, we went to the workshop and saw the model.
This model was made by the soft wood and the hard wood. The hard wood was used as the span to support the weight. This model used the column-beam connections. Joint details provided a weathertight seal through the use of offsets, flashing or caulking.
Allowance made for the movement of exposed wood due to changes in moisture content and when joining dissimilar materials for differing rates of thermal expansion and contraction.
We drew the 3D model of the case study in the class. It could help me understanding the detail of the wall system. There have lightweight insulating concrete over steel decking.
