The use of timber externally continues to grow in popularity and for good reason – it is aesthetically pleasing, a natural insulator, lightweight, has low embodied energy, excellent environmental credentials and if specified correctly, provides a durable and beautiful long lasting solution.
This free WoodSolutions seminar will showcase a range of current and new innovative approaches for external timber use in applications such as cladding and engineered columns and beams. Industry experts will provide the details needed for proper specification of hardwoods, modified acetylated wood as well as Glulam and will present some of the excellent projects that showcase these products.
This seminar is a must for all building and design professionals including architects, building designers, engineers, certifiers, developers, builders, regulators and educators .
