The structural design of Little Finlandia was based on the possibility of reusing the building. Once the renovation of Finlandia Hall has been completed, Little Finlandia can be moved to other locations and used as temporary facilities for schools and daycare centers or for other renovation projects. What also makes the building special is that it looks nothing like temporary constructions usually do.
The load-bearing structures of the modules used in Little Finlandia are built with several Kerto LVL products, including Kerto LVL S-beams, as well as Kerto LVL Q- and Kerto-Kate panels. Each of these products offers superior usability and properties for their purpose. Although lightweight, the products are very strong and rigid.
Little Finlandia must meet stringent standards for fire resistance. The Kerto LVL structures used in the building have a fire resistance of 60 minutes. The building also features three fire compartments, bordered by fire dampers that withstand fire for 30 minutes. The ventilation engine room and the intermediate floors were constructed to ensure a fire resistance of 30 minutes.

Sustainability has been one cornerstone of this building. A significant effort has been made to make the building as climate-neutral as possible. Heat pumps are used for heating, the building’s own solar panels largely supply the electricity demand and wooden components will act as carbon storage for the building’s lifetime.
