About this course
Timber is now accepted as a key component in low-carbon solutions for multistorey building projects.
The Tasmanian Timber Design Workshop (TTDW) is a two-day intensive professional workshop that allows architects, engineers, builders, and others interested in efficient timber-rich construction to develop their skills and professional networks in a unique, hands-on event.
The TTDW’s program balances presentations from leading timber design specialists and related experts with practical workshop sessions.
The presentation will cover sustainability, design options for timber-rich building and the latest in timber assembly and jointing processes.
Conducted in Architecture and Design’s purpose-built facility, the workshop sessions include structured experiments and a fabricate, make and break event using the latest timber products and connection systems. Access to the latest computer aided design and fabrication technology will be available.
