2014 Australian Timber Design Awards Showcase &
Residential Timber Framing and Flooring Seminar
This year the gala event for the Australian Timber Design Awards – the most respected and recognised awards for excellence in timber design – will be held in Sydney on September 18th 2014.
We are excited to offer on the 24th of September a special WoodSolutions Seminar in Victoria to showcase this year’s Australian Timber Design Awards entrants and winners, combined with a technical seminar focussed on a range of new residential timber framing concepts, approaches and products and specification of timber flooring.
If you are an architect, engineer or a designer of timber structures; or a specifier, installer or inspector of timber framing or flooring for residential projects - then this is a must-attend event.
Be inspired by the best timber designs of 2014, hear from industry leaders to ensure your framing knowledge is up-to-date, explore the economics of timber framing, and gain a detailed understanding of modern timber flooring design and installation.
