Improving the Quality of Timber Windows in Housing
The primary aim of the project is to encourage designers to specify prefinished, and, preferably, preglazed wood windows for housing in the UK in order to achieve higher standards of performance and improved durability. A secondary aim is to promote efficient and economical methods of forming prepared openings in walls in order to demonstrate to builders that changing from their current practice of using wood window frames as templates for brickwork need not be disruptive or unduly expensive.
