WOODRISE congress, September 12 -15, 2017 – Bordeaux, France
Organized by the Technological Institute FCBA, FPInnovations (Canada) and the Building Research Institute (Japan), this congress addresses all the actors of the mid-rise and high-rise building construction, who consider the wood as essential material in the development of the sustainable city.
Compound of international conferences around politics, economy, key players, the woodden way of living and realizations of today, this congress also offers you the possibility of meeting these leading players thanks to business meeting targeted and a lounge of exhibition of 3 000 m ²!
Acoustic experts from SilentTimber Build project will present theirwork on specific acoustic workshops.
Registrations are opened !

SEAWOOD Use for Silent Timber Build project Theory and Practice on lightweight wood construction
Meeting Zurich the 12 and 13 October 2015
Seminar 28-29 April 2015 – Stockholm
In cooperation with Swedish Wood Building Council
The seminar took place in Stockolm, on the 28-29 April 2015.
Acoustic calculation tools for timber structures are of big importance for the timber industry in order to overcome any uncertainties regarding prediction of their performance. This seminar has been arranged by the European project Silent Timber Build in cooperation with the Swedish Forest Industries. (See the seminar programme)
