New innovative timber construction techniques are today increasingly being used around the world
as designers and manufacturers continue to push the boundaries with new timber systems, construction approaches and products.
This free seminar will focus on Innovation in Timber and showcase a range of current and new product and design approaches
for both structural and appearance applications for residential, multi-residential and commercial applications.
Architectural, engineering and industry experts will discuss and stimulate your thinking on:
- innovative architectural timber design approaches,
- new engineered timber structural systems (lightweight, heavy timber & mass panel and composite solutions),
- advanced timber connection methods and design tools,
- rapid prefabricated timber construction solutions, and
- the multitude of new timber appearance products from flooring, lining, screening, to external cladding.
The seminar will be held at Swinburne University of Technology and will feature the opportunity to hear about the design process and inspect
the amazing timber domed Factory of the Future and the state-of-the-art design facilities within Swinburne’s Advanced Manufacturing and Design Centre.
This seminar is a must for all building and design professionals including: architects, building designers, engineers, certifiers, builders, regulators, educators and students.
