Theory in Practice: The Phases of Timber Construction Using a Representative Model

A morning of inspiring presentations covering mass timber, timber innovation and an overview of Rothoblaas’s products for mass timber construction, shall be followed by an interactive practical group training session allowing learners to get hands-on with a range of Rothoblaas connectors and resilient profiles to assemble a representative CLT and Glulam model, comprising some common details of critical junctions.
