Panel vs. Volumetric wooden construction

Why Panel Wooden Construction is Better Than Volumetric Wooden Construction?

Wooden construction has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its sustainability, durability, and aesthetic appeal. When it comes to wooden construction methods, there are two primary options: panel construction and volumetric construction. While both have their benefits, panel wooden construction outshines volumetric wooden construction in several key areas.

  1. Customization: Panel wooden construction allows for greater customization than volumetric construction. With panel construction, each individual panel can be cut and shaped to fit the specific needs of the project. This means that complex or irregularly shaped buildings can be easily accommodated with panel wooden construction.
  2. Transportation: Volumetric wooden constructions are prefabricated in factories and then transported as large units to the building site. This requires larger trucks or cranes for transportation which can lead to higher costs compared to transporting smaller panels used in panel wooden constructions.
  3. Quality Control: In volumetric constructions, entire modules are produced at once which makes it difficult to detect problems until they become very serious and costly errors during installation on site. On the other hand, panels used in panel wood constructions are individually inspected for quality control before being transported and installed on site.
  4. Cost-effectiveness: Panel wooden constructions tend to be more cost-effective than volumetric wooden constructions because they require less material waste during production since excess material is minimized by cutting custom sizes of panels required for specific parts of the building.
  5. Sustainability: Panel wood constructions use less timber compared with volumetric wood constructions that require more timber per square meter of floor area produced since larger volumes of wood are needed for prefabrication purposes alone.

In conclusion, while both approaches have their advantages when it comes down to choosing between them for your building project; especially if you're looking for greater customization options and cost savings - panel wooden construction is typically the better choice. Panel wood construction also boasts greater quality control and sustainability benefits, making it a great option for those looking for a more eco-friendly and cost-effective building method.
