Cross Laminated Timber: Insulating and Achieving Airtightness

February 16, 2021 @ 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm

This half-day course on CLT was very popular the first time it was held, so book now to avoid disappointment!

Cross Laminated Timber construction has seen a vast increase in popularity in recent years and is providing a welcome shift from energy intensive traditional construction such as masonry and steel. Projects are diverse and widespread throughout the UK from multi-storey residential buildings in London to affordable housing projects on the Isle of Mull.

The UK is now in a unique position to capitalise on the success and momentum of these builds with more ground-breaking CLT projects completed and planned across various sectors including commercial, residential and educational.

The course is delivered by experienced trainers Niall Crosson, Neil Turner and Ilias Igoumenidis of Ecological Building Systems, as well as trainers Peter Moonen, National Sustainability Manager at the Canadian Wood Council; Paul Southcott, Technical Consultant, HECO-Schrauben Germany; Michael Foerster, Construction Engineer & Export Manager, pro clima and Sen Perez of Finsa UK Structural Solutions.
