Short Course 02 - Rethinking construction: The Cross Laminated Timber Revolution

The Mass Timber Academy is delighted to announce the first of its 2021/22 programme of design and construction workshops focused on modern solid timber products and building systems. 

This short course is open to architects, architectural technologists, structural engineers and current students of these disciplines.

​

Cross Laminated Timber is increasingly recognised as a sustainable alternative to concrete and steel structures. Through the course of five afternoon sessions, participants learn of the many design and construction opportunities and challenges inherent in CLT today.

​

The detailed content of the five-week long series directly delivers 10 hours of objective, structured Continuing Professional Education (CPE).

​

Unique to this Continuing Professional Education (CPE) programme, participants will have the opportunity to engage in a mentored Design Sprint in which the information absorbed from the weekly sessions can be applied and tested. On successful conclusion of the Short Course and Design Sprint, participants will receive the Mass Timber Academy's Certificate of Achievement of competency in this subject.

Design Sprint mentoring means that places on the Short Course are limited, so early booking is advisable - sign up now!
