Joubert Plywood panels solution for Bracing panels

A low carbon construction system, timber construction is today used on all types of building, for new builds, extensions and renovations. Timber framework walls comprise a bracing system designed to ensure structural stability of the structure to prevent any deformation (wind, earthquake, deformation of the site, etc.).

Plywood panels are particularly suited to bracing or stressed exterior cladding. The choice of plywood and its implementation are determined by the rules of Eurocode 5 and of French specification DTU 31.2 pertaining to the construction of timber frame buildings and houses, in order to meet mechanical and watertightness requirements and to consider humidity and fire-resistant constraints.
