As an STA Gold Assure member, Merronbrook is making sure our panel offering is an STA pattern book tested panel.
Timber Frames
Timber frame construction, being one of the Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) in today’s buoyant industry, can be manufactured as an off-site product in various panel make-ups. What Merronbrook is absolutely committed to is making sure we conform to a pattern book tested panel by the STA.
Merronbrook’s Timber Frame Panel
We offer an open panel system, using a 140mm CLS stud insulated with a rigid insulation board. This is then clad externally with 9mm OSB ply, finished with a reflective shield breather paper.
STANDARD with a U-value of 0.18 W/m²K
As a compliant panel make-up, the following elements need to be installed:
- External façade: brick or block
- Cladded panels will decrease this U-value by 0.01 W/m²K
- 50mm cavity
- Reflective shield breather paper
- 9mm OSB ply
- Or an A1 non-combustible board for fire mitigation properties
- 140mm CLS timber stud
- 120mm PIR rigid insulation board

ENHANCED with a U-value of 0.17 W/m²K
- Standard VCL (Vapour Control Layer)

SUPER with a U-value of 0.14 W/m²K
