A one-day conference intended to educate, inspire and empower architects, engineers, suppliers and clients to design and build better timber buildings<\/h2>\n

The Better Timber Buildings conference<\/a> returns this year, emboldened by its success in 2018, with a specially curated programme headlined by two fantastic keynote speakers. Come along to the Royal Geographical Society, London, on 27 November 2019 for a concise one-day conference intended to both educate and inspire \u2013 empowering architects, engineers, suppliers and clients to design and build better timber buildings.<\/p>\n

TRADA<\/a> is delighted to announce that Sam Elliot, The Office Group\u2019s development director, and Nick Ling, Heatherwick Studio\u2019s technical design lead, will launch the event. Sam will provide a client\u2019s thought-provoking perspective, while Nick will elaborate on the outstanding design work behind the new Maggie\u2019s Yorkshire.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe intend to build on the momentum created by last year\u2019s conference<\/a>,\u201d said Rupert Scott, TRADA\u2019s membership and marketing manager.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are many reasons why we should embrace timber in construction, the most important of which is its remarkable ability to sequester carbon, yet there are still plenty of opportunities and issues to address \u2013 and rightly so.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Better Timber Buildings conference is TRADA\u2019s platform to challenge preconceptions around timber, provide much-needed guidance on current barriers to use, and whet the appetite with some truly outstanding timber buildings.\u201d<\/p>\n

TRADA will unite necessary discussion around the durability and fire performance of timber with exciting forward-thinking concepts around healthy buildings and offsite construction. Most of the speakers invited have undertaken methodical research in their specialty, enabling them to impart knowledge based on empirical evidence you can trust.<\/p>\n

Early bird tickets are now on sale until 31 August 2019. TRADA members receive additional discounts. To book, visit bettertimberbuildings2019.eventbrite.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n
