Substructure and load transfer
Decks, covers and timber structures need a clear load-bearing logic so that forces are distributed properly and movement can be controlled.
Wood construction from Laufen/Laufental for Northwestern Switzerland and Jura, with precise planning and durable execution.
From Laufen and Laufental, we deliver wood construction across Basel-Landschaft, Basel-Stadt, Solothurn, Aargau and Jura. Strong emphasis is placed on structural clarity, practical use, long-term performance and a clean overall result.
Technical foundation
Outdoor wood looks warm and natural on the surface. Its durability, however, depends on hidden details: substructure, spacing, ventilation, moisture protection, fastening and proper load transfer.
01
Decks, covers and timber structures need a clear load-bearing logic so that forces are distributed properly and movement can be controlled.
02
Spacing, rear ventilation, water runoff and constructive wood protection determine whether the timber stays dry enough over time.
03
Screws, connections, cut edges, transitions and later maintenance influence whether a wooden structure remains stable and visually clean.
Wood can be highly durable when structure, moisture, ventilation and maintenance are planned together. These relationships should be explained clearly before execution begins.
Write to us and we can discuss the structural needs, the possibilities and the next steps of execution.
