From design to delivery:

Join us at this co-hosted seminar presented by Timber Design Society & Mid-Rise Wood Construction, a handpicked panel of experts will be exploring architectural and structural design considerations across the project lifecycle, along with specialist topics including fire, acoustics, BIM, moisture management, carbon, and cost.
This full day event aims to leave ‘fresh timber converts’ and the already converted alike, inspired to choose wood as the material of choice for their next project - with a clear understanding of its pros and cons, and the confidence knowing where to find expert support to help you successfully navigate your next timber project.
