The cross laminated timber (CLT) structure of Downley House, fabricated by Eurban in Switzerland, commences on site this week. The CLT was CNC machine cut complete with door and window openings and penetrations for services, and brought over to the UK in lorries. This modern method of construction is growing more popular over here in the UK, and its easy to see why. Its sustainable, strong, flexible and the entire structure for a house like Downley can go up in a few weeks.
