Internally the finish is generally plasterboard directly fixed to the sips.

Timber frame sip panels. Structural insulated panels structural insulated panels sips are the choice that work best to create the most energy efficient envelope with timber framing. Higher r value. Utility bills are smaller as is your carbon footprint. Sips from insulspan carry a 20 year warranty and provide the foundation for a home that can cut heat loss by up to 60 compared to traditional stick frame construction.

Hamill creek timber homes timber enclosure systems include precut insulated walls and insulated roof assemblies and can be built either using pre cut sip panels or conventional wood frame insulation spray foam or mineral wool batt such as roxul. Structural insulated panels or sips are pieces of insulation bonded on each side to typically two skins of oriented strand board osb. At heavy timber truss and frame it starts with choosing the best components. Sip assemblies provide much higher effective thermal resistance than other construction methods.

At heavy timber truss and frame we have worked with a variety of insulation s and firms. Fire ratings of 60 60 60 and up to 90 90 90 can be achieved when installed with the appropriate cladding. Enercept s sips are high performance building panels made with an expanded polystyrene eps rigid foam core sandwiched between two structural skins of 7 16 oriented strand board osb used in floors walls and roofs. Sips can be used in place of timber stud walls roofs and suspended floors.

Whether you re building a full timber frame or a hybrid partial timber frame enclosing timber frames with sips is the perfect fit for your project. The canadian timberframes wall panel is a prefabricated exterior wall enclosure system developed to create the thermal envelope that is fastened to the timber frame structure. Because of the precise airsealed fit of our timber and panels your home will require a smaller hvac system. Benefits of building timber frames with sips tests have shown that structures built with sip wall and roof panels are 15 times more airtight than their stick.

All of the timber frame and wall components are designed in one 3d model and detailed shop drawings are produced for each wall panel this way assembly onsite will be as straight forward as possible. The system is similar to timber frame in that a breather membrane is applied to the external side with a ventilated cavity to allow for vapour and moisture to ventilate away and then cladding outside of this.
