In collaboration with New London Architecture, we’re looking forward to hosting a roundtable to discuss what as an industry we need to do to increase the use of engineered timber in our buildings.
Bringing together leading timber experts from across the industry, the roundtable will discuss what the challenges to building in timber are including water, fire, vibrations and how these can be overcome to change the misconceptions of timber in the marketplace.
