H8, Wooden high-rise building in Bad Aibling, Germany.

H8 is an eight-storey timber-panel building in Bad Aibling, 25 m tall with 803 m2 of usable floor area for flats and offices. Its load-bearing walls are prefabricated wooden block-frame panels, while the staircase had to be built in reinforced concrete for fire safety. Metal angles interrupt the facade cladding at each floor to stop fire spreading up the outside.

The site held the Bad Aibling Station, a signals-intelligence facility known as Field Station 81, until it closed in 2004. The grounds were then converted into the Nullenergiestadt Mietraching district, and the housing company B&O Wohnungswirtschaft built H8 there in 2011, drawing on experience with the smaller four-storey H4 next door. The timber system used for H8 and its neighbours in the "City of Wood" received an acknowledgement prize at the 2013 German Timber Construction Award.

H8 belongs to the "City of Wood" group of timber buildings on the former Bad Aibling Station site, now the Nullenergiestadt Mietraching district. The construction system used for H8 and its neighbours received an recognition award at the 2013 German Timber Construction Prize (Deutscher Holzbaupreis).

H8 stands on the grounds of the former Bad Aibling Station intelligence site, now the Mietraching zero-energy district. The building itself is not open to visitors; the timber facade with its metal angle profiles at each floor level can be observed from the surrounding streets. The stairwell core is concrete, the rest prefabricated timber.

The timber system used for H8 and the neighbouring "City of Wood" buildings received an honourable mention at the 2013 German Timber Construction Award. The stairwell had to be built in reinforced concrete for fire safety, and metal angles interrupt the facade cladding at each floor to stop fire spreading upward.
