Nybygg av 22 eneboliger og 3 næringslokaler - 6026 Rain

22 Homes, 3 Commercial Premises

The Sandblatte development, located at Sandblatte 3, 6026 Rain, Switzerland, consists of 22 terraced single-family homes and three commercial premises. The construction utilizes prefabricated timber elements, which are built in a factory and assembled on site, resulting in high-quality finishes and efficient construction.

Timber Elements for Speed

The project involves the construction of exterior and interior walls, floor slabs, and roof elements using timber element construction. Some homes also feature factory-installed roof terraces with roof hatches, allowing for customization based on buyer preferences. The use of prefabricated elements helps maintain consistent quality and speeds up the construction process.

Short Planning, Successful Completion

One of the main challenges faced during the project was a short planning phase coupled with material procurement bottlenecks. Despite these challenges, the project was completed successfully from August 2022 to February 2023. The total construction volume amounted to 2.6 million CHF.

FSC and PEFC Certified Wood

Sustainability was a key focus in the project, with all wood and wood-based materials bearing the FSC or PEFC label and sourced from the DACH region. The project's sustainable practices contribute to reducing its environmental footprint and promoting responsible forest management.

Zurich-Based Owners and Architects

The building owner of the Sandblatte development is Moyreal Immobilien AG, based in Zurich, while the architectural design was handled by BS-EMI Architekten AG. Timbatec Holzbauingenieure Schweiz AG served as the structural engineer, ensuring the integrity and safety of the timber constructions.
