Scion Hub - A Three storey seismically resilient timber diagrid

Journal

A.G. Cattanach, R.G. Clarke

The new three storey Hub building at Scion’s campus in Rotorua is an innovative approach to providing seismic resilience in timber. A demonstration project for Scion’s work in the timber industry it utilises several forms of engineered timber, including an LVL diagrid to provide gravity support and bracing at the perimeter of the floorplates to provide 100% of the building’s lateral resistance.
