Project
EPA Euratlantique has chosen the consortium constituted of Eiffage, Woodeum, 3F, Clairsienne and the architectural firm Jean-Paul Viguier & Associés, to build a CLT residential tower in solid wood, in the heart of Bordeaux, close to Gare Saint-Jean and the future high-speed train station.
The 57 m residential high tower is braced by a reinforced concrete core, and is composed of CLT floors, glued laminated timber perimeter beams, a wood-framed wall façade, and prefabricated, crane-laid metal balconies. The wood used for the entire project is a local softwood, Douglas fir, required by the client Eiffage Immobilier.
