Innovative laminated timber construction with steel cross bracing, featuring fully glazed elevations, while addressing fire rating challenges for adjacent structures, recognized as a finalist in the 2017 Timber NZ Wood Design Awards.

The new building is constructed of laminated timber columns and beams with steel cross bracing, exposed at street level through fully glazed elevations. The use of timber frame construction as the major structural element presented a challenge for the ground floor of the adjacent building, with regards to fire rating the party wall at the first floor level. EDC’s engineering design played an integral role in Piko Wholefoods selection as a category finalist in the 2017 Timber NZ Wood Design Awards.
