UC timber team

By webmadstaff |

A different site visit for PTL today. We had the opportunity to visit the University of Canterbury timber team around Minghao Li and could see first hand what fantastic research Ben Moerman and Thomas Wright are currently involved, focusing on high strength CLT shear walls and hold downs.
We are impressed by the high quality of the research and the impact it will have on future tall timber structures and super proud to be able to supervise these researchers. Keep up the great work!
