Why timber?

  • Benefit of building in timber
  • More sustainable
  • Lightweight
  • Less trades and labourers
  • Safer worksite
  • Less complex
  • Faster
  • Marketable

  • Practically all buildings will require

some “alternative” components

  • A ‘fire engineered’ solution with input

from the structural engineer

Structural Engineers Challenges

  • Early involvement on the job
  • Higher portion of the work upfront
  • Services coordination
  • Fire engineers with timber experience
  • Fire authorities vs Fire engineers
  • Neighbouring property
  • Fit-out
  • Progressive collapse solution
  • Selection of supplier/builder
