About this Event
Timber Connections is a three-hour event that brings together leading voices in architecture, engineering, and timber technology to share their groundbreaking work and visions for a more sustainable world.
Join Rothoblaas for an in-depth presentation on the challenges and solutions surrounding wood swelling and its impact on timber connections. The presentation will cover key topics such as timber's natural response to environmental conditions, the interaction between water and timber connections, and how Rothoblaas test campaigns have driven innovation in addressing these challenges. The session will also provide practical insights into solutions and best practices for moisture management in timber construction, ensuring long-lasting structural integrity in various climatic conditions. Additionally, it will cover the impact of moisture variation on screw performance and timber deformation, as well as the critical role that installation torque and misalignment of fasteners play in the overall connection design. Attendees will learn how these factors influence timber connections' durability and effectiveness, helping optimize long-term performance in real-world applications.
The presentation will offer attendees a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in fastening technology, moisture control strategies, and Rothoblaas' commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions for mass timber construction. Participants will gain valuable knowledge on how to minimize the effects of swelling, prevent corrosion, and optimize timber performance in the field. Whether you are an architect, engineer, or construction professional, this session is not to be missed!
Connect with experts, gain valuable insights, and be part of the conversation on pushing the boundaries of sustainable construction forward.
