The WoodSolutions Resilient Timber Homes Program is progressing well, with the design competition nearing completion.
The world's timber engineering leaders recently convened in Oslo for the bi-annual World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE), and the Australian presence was stronger than ever, with forty-three attendees out of 850.
In a remarkable display of determination, two of Australia's most esteemed timber engineering educators, Lisa Ottenhaus and Jon Shanks, are gearing up for an extraordinary challenge this September.
The interest in engineered wood construction continues to take the world by storm, and Australia punches well above its weight in terms of innovation, new product/system development, off-site manufacturing, design creativeness, and the delivery of amazingly beautiful projects.

You are right, there is a discrepancy between Table 23 in the MGP10 Supplement and the output from our TimberSolutions software. Theoretically TimberSolutions should produce the same span tables as those contained in the AS 1684 Supplements, but there has apparently been some 'tweaking' of the spans in AS 1684 which are not reflected in TimberSolutions. We are looking into this further. Meanwhile, as the NCC referenced document, AS 1684.2 (and the span table Supplements) take precedence over TimberSolutions which is an industry software package.
