Timber Multistorey Open Deck Carparks
Timber Multistorey Open Deck Carparks
Timber can be used for a variety of building types. An often-overlooked building that normally defaults to steel and concrete construction is open decked, multistorey carparks. There are now several multistorey carpark structures in existence in Europe that are either entirely timber, or a hybrid of timber and steel and concrete.
TMBR Consult has developed a timber multistorey carpark system specifically for Australian conditions, our timber supply chain and the National Construction Code. In conjunction with several partners, TMBR Consult is working toward delivering Australia’s first multistorey timber carpark.
A range of international case studies on timber rich carparks are below. Follow the links to read more about timber in carparks including an LCA assessment and conference papers.
