"GIR joint" that maximally brings out the design potential of wooden frame structures.
Achieve a beautiful wooden frame structure that hides metal components! Ideal for architectural projects that prioritize design, such as stores, hotels, public facilities, and exhibition spaces.
In recent years, there has been increasing attention on "wooden frame structures" that can achieve both open large spaces and high design quality in stores, public facilities, offices, and residences. In typical wooden joints, hardware can sometimes become a design constraint. However, the 'Home Connector Method (GIR Joint)' utilizes a unique technology that accommodates the joining hardware within the wood itself, ensuring the high strength and high rigidity required for wooden frame structures while achieving a beautiful wooden structure without exposed hardware. This method is suitable for buildings that prioritize design, such as stores, hotels, childcare facilities, public facilities, and offices. 【Features】 ■ High-strength and high-rigidity joints compatible with wooden frame structures ■ High design quality achieved as the joining hardware is not visible ■ Possible expansion into various structural forms
