Timberbuilt Solutions

Timberbuilt was established by Bruce Hutchings in 1982 in response to a declining use of timber for commercial scale buildings. Since the 1950’s the decline in the use of timber paralleled a reduced availability of engineers interested and knowledgeable in timber engineering design and tradespersons with the understandings necessary to fabricate timber structures other than houses. It was apparent that timber systems had the potential to fulfil many building needs beyond housing scale but that new structural systems, materials and a technology based fabrication approach would be required. The integration of factory based prefabrication into the same entity as the timber engineering design would build competencies in both areas; it would also provide efficiencies and ensure control of quality in order to achieve appropriate levels of structural reliability for the completed structure. Timberbuilt was born from this understanding.
