THE MOST SEISMIC RESISTANT

Wooden houses withstand the most destructive earthquakes on the planet!

Their walls are relatively light and do not put a lot of loads on the foundation. And also due to the fact that the crowns of the beam "walk" among themselves, but at the same time fastened as a whole, do not crack or collapse.

For this reason, both timber houses and log houses are very popular all over the world in seismic zones.

Wooden houses are the most reliable shelter during an earthquake!

Earthquake-resistant construction is a set of measures aimed at ensuring that houses withstand shocks of magnitude 9 or more.

It is extremely important to make a calculation for seismic resistance in hazardous regions. And Lumi Polar makes such calculations at the Sweco Helsing Institute. We design houses taking into account the data provided by the professor of the above-named institute. We make strong foundation reinforcement. We add rigidity and bonding in the walls, take into account all the nuances in laying engineering communications, and so on.

Thus, even with a very strong earthquake, furniture can fall, but the walls made of timber will always stand!

It is obvious that the world is entering an era of natural disasters. As seismologists around the world work to be able to reliably predict tectonic activity, engineers and builders are challenged to develop sustainable and reliable houses that will protect their owners. And the best prospects here are revealed in the natural material - wood! That's how interesting our world is.

CLASSICS VS MODERNITY

We really challenged the urban environment when we integrated such a significant invention as the Modern Corner, which allowed us to build wooden houses from glued timber in the city.

Our unique patented Modern Corner and will impress even the most sophisticated people. Thanks to the use of this new technology, the timber is joined not in overlap with overcuts protruding at the corners (as in traditional wooden houses), but without them (as, for example, in stone houses). Thanks to high-precision cuts, the connection of the corners is so tight that t...

Rules for energy saving

According to recent studies, today, when choosing their housing, Europeans consider first of all its ecological and energy-saving aspects, and only then - all other ones.

The energy is used in a house to support operation of electrical appliances, water heating and cooking, but heating of the house takes the lion's share. Unconditional Commitment of the Architect Construction of energy saving houses has been paid attention to only at the turn of 80-90 years of the last century. Western Europeans were the first who raised the alarm. Havi...

Foundation according to Finnish standards

The Finns have high requirements to foundations, which are justified by experience, proven by time and shown in Finnish design and production standards.

And they should not be abandoned or neglected. Since it is on the foundation that all structures are laid. Therefore, any even the most insignificant deviations from the standards or errors made during its installation, firstly, will be impossible to fix later, and secondly, over time lead to major repairs. Before starting to design a house, the Finns carefully select t...
