We have started a large construction project in Fornebu, Norway. We are building the facade and two large skylights for the seven-storey high-rise office building “Aker Tech House”. Both the facade and skylighst are constructed from glued laminated timber (glulam). The length of the facade is 78.9 m, height – 33.8 m, width – 4.0 m. Skylight is 2 x 428 m2.

In this project, ZAZA TIMBER designed and manufactured wooden structures and now carries out their assembly. At the design stage, we created the design and detailing of wooden structures, developed shop- and assembly drawings. In our factory we manufactured pre-fabricated parts with a length of up to 24 m and a total volume of 218 m3. The planned assembly time is 20 weeks.

Assembly of a skylight begins. 24 m long glulam beams are assembly ready .
