Even though most houses and apartments have a ceiling made of concrete, wooden ceilings are becoming increasingly popular and bring some advantages. For example, sound and heat insulation in a room with a wooden ceiling is very good and provides a pleasant room acoustics. Likewise, a wooden ceiling has visual appeal, harmoniously divides the premises due to the uniform beams and provides a cozy atmosphere and a healthy indoor climate.
A wooden ceiling can be erected quite quickly and easily. The planning is done by an architect or a carpenter. After measuring the premises, the wood cuts are completed in the workshop. Then the beams are stretched from wall to wall in the house, more boards and wood materials cover the structure from above, so that the floor can be built in the formwork.
Owners can choose between a layered joist ceiling, a clad wooden joist ceiling and a board stack ceiling. If the property has to comply with special fire safety requirements, a suspended ceiling is also installed in accordance with the statutory requirements for fire and sound insulation. But basically it can be said that a modern wooden ceiling is very durable and resilient, easy to maintain and environmentally friendly.
