KOROK® Intertenancy Terraced Housing Systems: Enhancing Fire Safety and Acoustic Performance

A standout feature of Superlot BA29 is the use of KOROK® Intertenancy Terraced Housing Systems, specifically designed for terraced homes. These systems offer unparalleled fire resistance and sound insulation, elevating the safety and comfort of residents.

  • Fire Safety: Unlike traditional framed wall systems that rely on internal linings for fire resistance, KOROK® panels position the main fire barrier between housing frames. In the event of a fire, aluminium brackets on the fire-affected side melt, allowing that section to safely detach while preserving the rest of the structure.
  • Acoustic Performance: KOROK® systems also improve sound insulation, reducing noise transmission between homes. This advanced soundproofing creates a peaceful and private living environment, essential for modern urban dwellings.

Architectural Innovation by Construkt Architects

The architectural brilliance of Construkt Architects shines through in this development. The Superlot BA29 showcases terraced homes and garden apartments, with features such as expansive balconies, full-height windows, and distinct gabled frontages that create visual appeal while ensuring privacy. The design contributes to a welcoming, community-focused streetscape, enhancing the overall living experience.

Quality Construction by Universal Homes

Universal Homes, known for its commitment to precision and quality, transformed Construkt Architects’ vision into a reality. Their expertise in construction ensured that each home in Superlot BA29 meets the highest standards of safety, durability, and comfort.

In terraced housing and town houses, conventional framed wall systems rely on the internal linings for fire-resistance. Penetrating these linings potentially destroys the fire-rated barrier.
