Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 1. General Introduction Since the 2nd World War, academics and businesses have been trialling for a composite between timber and concrete materials so as to be able to use and maximise the strengths and positive features from both of these building materials. The floor slab achieved to bring both materials into a composite, whereby the concrete takes the impact from a load and the wood provides tension support. The first approach for a solution to produce a composite was in the first instance to leave open the wood and the grouting directly with the...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 2. The HBV® - Floor Systems - The HBV ® – Systems can be used in diverse variations for flooring application. HBV ® HBV ® HBV ® HBV ® HBV ® HBV ® HBV ® HBV ® – Beam Floor – Rib Floor – Coffer/Box Floor – Vario Floor – Plate Floor – Acoustic Floor – Hollow Coffer/Box Floor – System Upgrades With HBV ® – Beam Floor, HBV ® – Rib Floor, HBV ® – Coffer/Box Floor, HBV ® – Vario Floor, HBV ® – Plate Floor, HBV ® – Acoustic Floor, HBV ® – Hollow/Box Floor, are as a rule for the HBV ® - Shear Connectors, the wooden building components are made ready in a...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 HBV® - Beam Floor The HBV ® - Beam Floor was developed with the aim to create safe wooden beam flooring that has approximately the same physical building characteristics like a steel concrete floor. That is to say with small vibration sensitivity and a good sound insulation. At the same time however, the properties in comparison to steel concrete floor are to have less dead load and therefore reduced distortion sensitivity. In the HBV ® - Beam Floor, the wooden beams are manufactured in accordance with the structural requirements and the glued-in HBV ®...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 2.2 HBV® - Rib Floor A special variation of the HBV ® - Beam Floor is the HBV ® - Rib Floor. This was developed with the aim to make possible a higher degree of pre-fabrication and with this an optimum construction period can be achieved. The HBV ® - Rib Floor consists of a top layer of concrete as well as bottom layer, with wooden beams arranged in grid pattern. The floor elements are completely pre-fabricated, which allows for it to be quickly and easily installed on the building site. After the installation of each floor elements, they must be...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 2.3 HBV® - Coffer/Box Floor An interesting solution for long free span load bearing floor in wood-concrete-composite building technique is provided by the HBV ® - Coffer/Box Floor. The HBV ® - Coffer/Box Floor is a further development of the HBV ® - Beam Floor, analysed through the static of the underside of an effective and appropriate reinforcement. The reinforcing and the concreting of the HBV ® - Coffer/Box Floor are normally to be carried out at the building site. It is however possible, that the HBV ® - Coffer/Box Floor is ready concreted in a...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 2.4 HBV® - Vario Floor A further development of the HBV ® - Beam Floor is the HBV ® - Vario Floor. As per the design requirements, the shear connectors are embedded into the elements of the glued-laminated timber. At the building site, the pre-fabricated beams are subsequently laid flat and applied with dead sheathing/insulation materials such as reinforcement mats. This subsequently completes the concreting process. The benefits of the HBV ® – Vario Floor: - Higher static load bearing capacity resulting from a relatively small spacing distance of the...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 2.5 HBV® - Plate Floor In the manufacturing plant, the HBV ® – Shear connectors are embedded into the flat laying, large wooden elements of the glued-laminated timber. This allows for the large-sized building elements to be quickly installed. Reinforcement and concreting of the HBV ® – Plate Floor are completed on the building site. The benefits of the HBV ® – Plate Floor: - Higher static load bearing capacity of the floor - Construction span of 15m and more - Diaphragm action of the total construction - Accelerated construction period through...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 2.6 HBV® - Acoustic Floor A further development of the acoustic floor from the company Lignotrend is the HBV ® – Acoustic Floor. The HBV ® – Shear Connectors are embedded into the pre-fabricated slab elements at the manufacturing plant. The pre-fabricated slab elements are fitted with special acoustic profile. In the manufacturing plant and in accordance with design requirements, the HBV ® – Shear Connectors are embedded into the pre-fabricated slab elements, which have been fitted with special acoustic profile. This enables the large-sized building...

Technical Dossier HBV-Systems 2014-05 2.7 HBV® - Hollow Coffer/Box Floor A further innovative development of the HBV ® - Plate Floor especially of the HBV ® - Acoustic Floor is the HBV ® - Hollow Coffer/Box Floor. The HBV ® - Shear Connectors are embedded into the wooden elements in accordance to the design requirements. To reduce the weight of the ceiling or flooring, it is completed with the installation of expanded polystyrene. The reinforcement and concreting of the HBV ® – Hollow Coffer/Box Floor are completed on the building site. These largesized building parts can be quickly...
