German term

in elementierter Holzrahmenbauweise errichtet

German to English Tech/Engineering Architecture
Das Gebäude wurde in elementierter Holzrahmenbauweise auf einer 250 mm starken Stahlbetonbodenplatte errichtet und mit druckfester Wärme- sowie Trittschalldämmung ergänzt.

What would be the most natural way of saying this in English? All the translations I have seen look like clumsy translations from the German.

TIA.

constructed using a modular timber frame method

"Modular" seems quite apt for "elementierter", and after a quick search I found links like these.

agree philgoddard : But you need German references, not English ones. We've had "elementiert" before:http://www.proz.com/kudoz/german-to-english/construction-civ...
