Biogenic construction:Thatched building façades for the green transition
The article describes the project: Thatched Facades for the Green Transistion. The project is based on a collaborative ambition across industry and academia to explore and enhance the idea of absolute sustainable architecture based on biogenic materials – under the heading radical tectonics. It is funded by the Danish Environmental Technology Development and Demonstration Program (MUDP) together with the involved partners. It is organised as a practice-oriented research collaboration between craftsmen, fire engineers, and architectural researchers represented by two master thatchers, one clay-mason, The Danish Institute of Fire & Security Technology (DBI), The Office of Thatching (Straatagets Kontor/Secretariat for ITS - International Thatching Society), and the Center for Industrialised Architecture (CINARK) at the Royal Danish Academy.Fire-safety is central when aiming to develop absolute sustainable architectural solutions with biogenic building materials. This project sets out to investigate how material choice and radical tectonic solutions can act as drivers for a sustainable change in the construction industry, building legislation and architectural practice focusing on surface treatments and construction design. The aim is to provide credible suggestions for CO2 neutral construction types with environmentally low impact, close-to-standard fire-retardant properties, and a scalability to an industrial level. In this context reed is a very interesting material as it has a fast growth period, can absorb a range of critical greenhouse gases and sustains biodiversity.
