The ’strawboid’ can be turned into a holiday home. If sealed by glass facades, the strawboid can also be used as a living space (graphic representation).
TU Graz students present their master's project: the innovation "strawboid". The wooden lattice-work construction is light on material and production energy, but strong on engineering and design. . "A light wooden lattice-work construction, straw bales, clay and wooden tiles - and the house of the future is finished," enthuses supervisor Andreas Trummer from the Institute of Structural Design at TU Graz . He is explaining the apparently simple concept of the arched construction system "strawboid" developed by architecture students Max Schade and Fritz Walter in the framework of their master's thesis - supported by the Austrian Research Promotion Agency, the land and forestry college Alt-Grottenhof and proHolz Steiermark. How the implementation of good design and clever engineering can be united in an ecologically sustainable and aesthetically surprising result has been revealed at the presentation of the prototype at two events. On 25 September at the opening of the Adventure Day at Stübing Open-Air Museum, and on 28 September at the project presentation together with proHolz Steiermark , also at the open-air museum.
