Innovations in timber construction

In recent years, timber construction has developed into a modern and sustainable building method. Thanks to innovative solutions and technologies, new possibilities are constantly emerging in timber construction. SIHGA® is a leading specialist in fastening technology for timber construction and is constantly committed to the development of new products and systems. Through constant innovation, SIHGA® strives to accelerate construction progress whilst simultaneously improving safety on site. Discover the latest innovations in timber construction that are helping to further advance timber construction.

WOOD IN MODERN CONSTRUCTION

Wood is a versatile building material and is used in numerous areas of the construction industry. Due to its low weight combined with high load-bearing capacity, it is suitable for a wide variety of structures – from detached houses and multi-storey buildings to bridges and public structures. 

Timber can be machined with precision and allows for a high degree of prefabrication. This simplifies assembly processes on site and reduces construction times. At the same time, timber opens up a wide range of possibilities for bespoke architectural solutions. 

Choosing the right fastening technology is crucial for the safety and durability of a timber structure. SIHGA® develops connection systems and fastening solutions for structural timber construction that are tailored to different areas of application. The products are continuously refined to meet the requirements of design, manufacture and assembly. 

NEW PRODUCTS IN SIHGA® FASTENING TECHNOLOGY 

SIHGA® develops fastening systems for professional timber construction. The focus is on solutions that enable easy installation, reliable performance and a permanently secure connection of timber components. 

The range includes screws, connectors, installation aids and digital systems for monitoring timber structures. Products are developed in close collaboration with designers, timber construction firms and contractors to meet the demands of real-world applications.

In addition to product development, SIHGA® supports its customers with technical advice and assistance in selecting suitable fastening solutions for various construction projects.

DIGITAL SOLUTIONS FOR TIMBER CONSTRUCTION

Digital tools are becoming increasingly important in timber construction. They support planning, manufacturing and assembly processes and simplify documentation throughout the entire construction process. 

SIHGA® offers, amongst other things, solutions for integration into  BIM processes  (Building Information Modelling), as well as a moisture monitoring system for timber structures. The system enables the continuous recording of moisture levels. Changes can be detected and localised at an early stage. The data collected helps operators and planners to assess the condition of the structure and plan maintenance. The combination of fastening technology and digital applications supports precise planning, structured construction and the long-term operation of timber structures.
