Incorporating Glass into Oak Frame Structures

The Vestra Oak Capping System

Fitting glazing into oak framed buildings requires careful planning, as oak is a natural material that will move and shrink over time. As the frame shrinks and settles, it could put pressure on the glass or create gaps around the glazing, allowing air and water to penetrate the building. This can compromise thermal performance, increase heating costs, and potentially lead to damp, mould growth, or damage to the oak frame itself.

At Vestra Oak, we have developed our oak capping system to counter these problems. This system uses two layers of kiln dried oak boards secured to the external face of the structural oak frame. The glass is then fitted within this capping detail and surrounded by flexible, weatherproof tape to help prevent water ingress while allowing for natural movement in the frame.
