UniversalTimberSlab Project
07 August 2024
Computational design, fabrication and engineering methods for unconstrained, highly resource efficient, point-supported timber slabs in multi-storey buildings.
Editorial Team
The project aims to develop novel design, engineering and fabrication methods for point-supported timber slab structures in multi-storey buildings.
It aims to provide the fundamental technologies for a sustainable alternative building system that could broadly replace point-supported reinforced concrete slabs - especialy in urban building projects.
The project aims to develop a universally applicable, suppliable, usable and affordable alternative building system and make timber construction broadly available. It is based on a building system concept, in which complex arrangement of wood lamellas provide the potential for high structural performance.
Start date: October 2024 - End date: October 2027
