WHY PARTICIPATE
For the 9th time the timber world will meet at the Rothoblaas Headquarters!
Two days will be dedicated to mass timber construction for both aspiring professionals and experts. Including a comprehensive program of speeches and case studies to discover, keep up with all the latest developments and unique networking opportunities.
CONTENTS
The timber sector is in constant and fast growth. There are always new technical solutions to respond to the market requests.
This new edition takes a deeper dive into hybrid structures, presenting real examples, case studies, and research results that highlight the potential of this construction system. From seismic and fire resistance to site management and innovative connections, the focus is on technical innovation.
At the same time, mass timber continues to prove its value in creating outstanding structures that combine architectural boldness, fast construction, and advanced prefabrication systems.
Special attention is also given to prefabricated facades, a key element for quality and speed in construction, whether for new buildings or renovation projects.
Throughout the event, there will be opportunities to discuss the future of timber construction and visit Rothoblaas’ new automatic warehouse.
