In this paper, the structural feasibility of expanding existing social housing buildings structured in reinforced concrete (RC) using timber structures is investigated. For this purpose, a 4-story housing block massively built throughout Chile - known as CORVI 1010 housing block-is selected as a case study. The proposal considers a 2-story platform frame expansion. The results show that timber-structured expansions have low impact on existing buildings, minimal increase on design stress and that strengthening of the original structure is not required.
