The materials used are technical products and must be installed according to professional standards. We recommend that the installation be carried out by a professional.

Near Armentières, just minutes from the Lille metropolitan area, the Pavillon Musical residence extends the quality of life in the village of Erquinghem-Lys through its design. Surrounded by green spaces offered by the numerous balconies, terraces, and gardens, the 38 apartments benefit from the comfort and thermal and environmental excellence of a construction that favors wood. Also equipped with photovoltaic panels installed on the green roof, the residence meets the 2025 threshold of the RE2020 through all its construction choices. And will allow its future residents to make substantial energy savings.

The constructive choices of the project

Rationalizing the use of materials to improve performance and value for money: this is what wood engineering allows with I-beams.

Eric Schoondermark, project architect

The Pavillon Musical residence relies on a mix of wood, concrete, and metal to meet its environmental ambitions. Above the base and around the concrete circulation cores, the wooden frame takes over structurally. All the floors are made from laminated wood wall plates and joists. I-beams, which provides reinforced insulation. Topped with an acoustic resilient and a screed, this type of floor also offers high soundproofing efficiency, particularly against impact noise.

The use of Swelite® I-Beam in this project

Lightweight and strong, the I-beam saves material while providing insulation quality that meets passive standards. Portable and easy to install thanks to suitable connectors, it facilitates network routing and can be used for:

  • Timber frame walls
  • Low floors over crawl space or high floors
  • Roof supports
