Under the facade
The heavy-steel frame and the VAN wall are identical in every concept. Only the outer 10 mm changes — plaster, mouldings, columns or stone.
Wall build-up
Heavy steel carries the loads. Around it, one wall in layers: the LSTK frame sets the geometry, hat profiles stiffen it, and monolithic foam concrete fills the cavity — cast between the insulation board outside and the cement board inside, which stays in place as permanent formwork.
