MRWC/TDS Seminar

Designing and Building Better with Timber

Timber Design Society (TDS) and Mid-Rise Wood Construction (MRWC) have a common purpose: building a better future for the industry - and New Zealand - through greater use of timber across design and construction.

INSIDE THE SEMINAR

Join us for a seminar that takes you from initiating a mass timber project through to construction — exploring architectural and structural design considerations across the project lifecycle, along with specialist topics including fire, acoustics, BIM, moisture management, carbon, and cost.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Whoever you are within the industry, and wherever you are on your timber learning journey, you’ll find practical insights to take away. The networking session at the end provides an opportunity to connect and share with peers.

This full day event aims to leave ‘fresh timber converts’ and the already converted alike, inspired to choose wood as the material of choice for their next project - with a clear understanding of its pros and cons, and the confidence knowing where to find expert support to help you successfully navigate your next timber project.

Numbers are limited - register early to secure your spot.
