How this node works

Like every timber wall, the frame does not touch the concrete: the sill plate rests on a membrane (capillary break), detached from the ground and anchored to the foundation.

Key points

  • Ring beam / raft
  • Membrane / DPC (capillary break)
  • Sill plate
  • Stud
  • OSB + anchor
  • Detachment from the ground
