Timber Engineering
This series of Timber Engineering courses intends to upskill engineers in design of buildings constructed using timber. Presenters Jon Shanks and Geoff Boughton from TimberED Services developed and delivered a series of six Timber Engineering webinars in mid 2020. The content for these Campus courses is based on the recorded webinars.

Environmental Characteristics of Timber
This topic introduces timber and wood products’ environmental characteristics, describes their potential contribution to sustainable development and compares them with those of major materials. As forestry practise can have significant impacts on the forest’s renewability and other impacts, the benefits and limits of forest and chain-of-custody certification are discussed.
