Materials
Foundation
The foundation consists of concrete blocks with a metal connection corner to the column. The connection corners and bolts and nuts are provided, as well as the plywood plates to pour the concrete blocks. The threaded ends of the M16 bolts make the home easily adjustable in height.
Floor
The floor consists out of wooden main and sub beams. They are screwed together and insulated with a 90 mm glass wool insulation within a vapour permeable construction foil. The floor is plated with an 18 mm chipboard plating.
Outer Walls
The outer walls are built up out of wooden studs and plated with 18 mm white painted chipboard. The walls are insulated with 90 mm glass wool and covered with a UV and water resistant building foil. Façade cladding of 4 mm oil tempered white painted hard board is applied. Structural columns are present at the corners of each segment.
Windows and front doors
Decent plastic window frames with low maintenance are provided in standard dimensions.
Inner Walls
The inner walls are made out of wooden studs and battens and insulated with acoustical insulation (70 mm). The inner walls are clad with 12 mm white painted chipboard.
Roof
The roof is built up out of wooden main and sub beams and plated with white chipboard of 18mm. It can be finished with PIR insulation and corrugated sheets.

Installations
Installations can easily be applied on site by local technicians. The wooden construction is ideal for applying plumming and electricity on site during the construction process (or later on). Airconditioning, electrical wiring and plumming can be installed through inner and outer walls. Ventilation exhausts can be placed in the kitchen and bath room walls. Solar panels can be mounted on the roof.
Rain water can be collected with a rain gutter and stored in a water storage tank. Waste water can exit the bath room and kitchen easily through the floor construction. As the floor of the construction is lifted above ground level the infrastructure can be reached and maintained easily. Connection to local infrastructure or decentral systems is simple.
