1 opportunities in Markus Tiling, M.B.A. Sales Director Engineered Wood Products

2 Overview of the most common Brief History of Strengths and of Structures in Holz an European timber industry Examples of modern Structures

3 System No. 1 Log Structures Long tradition in many countries Common in mountainous regions Restricted to individual markets

4 System No. 2 Frame Structures Widely spread all of over Europe Option to use shorter length logs Option to use hardwood components Load-bearing frame visible

5 System No. 2 Frame Structures Popularity decreased with urbanisation Restricted design possibilities materials more economic Still seen in agricultural buildings

6 System No. 3 Balloon or Platform Frame Structures Fast growing United States, 19 th century Nails, lumber & railroad Quick assembly possible Functional as well as individual Affordable buildings

7 System No. 4 Stud and Panel Structures An adaption of balloon & platform frame Stability by attaching wooden sheets Most popular building system in USA Market share in central Europe growing Pre-assemble possible, quick assembly

8 System No. 5 Solid Structures Production of large-formated elements Double function: load-bearing + enclosing Walls, roofs and floors Simple and efficient assembly Flexible design no grid pattern

9 The most Common Log structures frame construction Balloon and platform frame construction stud and panel construction Solid timber construction

10 The History of Engineered Structures 1st century B.C., Roman Basilika with 18 m span timber truss 55 B.C. J. Caesar builds a bridge across the Rhine river: 4 x 400 m 12th century stave churces, the onset of timber frame construction Middle Ages: homes were constructed as timber frame Composite timber structures Non-glued layered bridge beams

11 Historical Development of Structures until th century was the century of timber bridges Composite timber structures: individual components were jointed and fixed with wooden nails permitting spans of up to 50 m 1860 King Edward College in Southhampton, first known glulam structure

12 Engineered Wood Products 20 th century developments 1908: Otto Hetzer receives patent on glulam beams 1940: Use of waterproofed adhesives (resorcinol) 1950: Industrial production of I-joists 1988: Introduction of Parallam, LVL, 1990: Growth of glulam beam market in Europe 1998: Cross laminated timber, first technical approval

13 Design & Engineering (Architect & Engineer) 19th century: separation of tasks between architect and engineer Engineer is responsible for loading and structural design Architect becomes responsible for space and aesthetics considerations In consequence: independent design are not necessarily tied to the structural considerations

14 Design & Manufacturing Digital design tools permit the generation of complex geometric shapes independent of the material and statical restrictions Mechanization and CNC process allow materials to be processed with higher degree of accuracy

15 Trends of the 21 st century 1. Solid timber structures Simple compliance of structure and aesthetics Load-bearing and enclosing function High degree in flexibility no grid pattern Fast and economic assembly 2. Complex structural designs Away from simple lines, plane elements Arched, 3-dimensional beams Individual, creativity, extravagant designs

16 Strengths S W O T: Structures Long spans, load-bearing / weight ratio MOE, allows bending, free shapes Resistance to aggressive chemicals Controlled burning Easy to work with Speed of assembly Shape, design flexibility Available regional resource Climate positive Advantage of off-site production

17 S W O T: Structures Large spans are economical CO 2 sink, carbon foot print reduced Sustainability of timber Off-site production speeds up assembly is easily worked with Fire resistance properties are advantagous Shape, design flexibility Comfort, well being of the owners and

18 opportunity 1 Cross-laminated - residential Easy of design and assembly Meets today s architectural style Load-bearing and enclosing function High load bearing performance High dimensional stability Improved living comfort

19 Opportunity 2 Cross-laminated Community s environmental conscious, CO 2 storage politically favored & pushed easy, efficient design + quick assembly dry building material: quick completion - cost savings healthy environment, high degree of comfort

20 opportunity 3 Cross-laminated multi storey X-lam products are well suited for high loads Extreme dimensional stability due to cross-banded lay-up Large formats available, up to 16 m in length Simple and efficient design Ideal for urban structures

21 opportunity 4 Extremly durable - Accoya Accoya timber softwood timber for exterior use Processed wood through acetylation 50 year + guaranteed durability Produced from sustainable softwood timber

22 Accoya Project example: Bridge in Sneek, NL Span: 35 m Width: 12 m Height: 15 m Volume: 450 m3 Build by: Schaffitzel Holzindustrie, Germany

23 opportunity 5 High Rack Distribution Centers Heavy loads Fire resistance Speed of Assembly Dimensional stability

24 High Rack Distribution Center: HRL Schwarzach, Austria

25 opportunity 6 Limiting transport Hess Limitless Overlength beams of any shape Jointed under ideal climatic conditions Flexibility in design Strength assurance quality control

26 opportunity 7 Freedom of Design & CNC Manufacturing Inspiration + ideas + design = timber structures CNC production technology Network of experts on a global scale

46 Agrarbildungszentrum Salzkammergut Altmünster (Austria)

47 Cycling and pedestrian bridge 50 m length, 2,60 m width

48 Swimming pool, Hagenberg (Austria)

49 The proliferation of engineered timber products is positive It is positive for the people and for the environment is the only resource which is re-grown and reused The use of timber creates sustainable jobs, health and wealth Working with timber and living in timber structures provides satisfaction and well-being There are a multiple of opportunities in developing timber structures The chances to participate in this growth have never been better
