Floating Homes, Hamburg
Modern floating homes, an alternative living option Rather than the romantic idyll of a ship, the emphasis here is on exclusive design and contemporary building materials. On this elliptical house boat, RESITRIX® SK W Full Bond was bonded to the wooden shell and the sheet roof was then fitted from the outside. The pontoon was also sealed with RESITRIX®. In the base area, the RESITRIX EPDM sealing membrane was pulled up to 30 cm over the top edge of the concrete plate to protect the boat against wave impacts too.
