Information

WHY PARTICIPATE

The course blends theory with hands-on practice. Every practical step is paired with clear explanations, so you can fully understand how CLT and glulam structures are built.

Learn to build in timber the right way: spot common mistakes before they happen and apply proven technical solutions for high-quality results in both design and on-site execution.

Joining this course is an investment in skill and quality: one that pays off immediately and lasts over time. With practical tools and expert guidance, you’ll avoid costly errors and gain confidence in every phase of construction.

All of this takes place at our headquarters in the heart of the Alps, a region with a deep-rooted tradition in timber buildings.

CONTENTS

During the course, we will assemble a complete section of a timber building, from the foundations to the roof structure. The practical phases will be integrated with theoretical explanations that provide the essential for understanding structural behavior and the basic principles of thermal and moisture performance in timber buildings.

  • Installation phases through the construction of a full-scale mock-up, from foundations to roof
  • Traditional and innovative connections
  • Handling and positioning of timber structural elements
  • Basic principles for designing the building envelope to ensure airtightness and waterproofing

AUDIENCE

This course is designed for anyone who wants to approach timber construction with a practical, hands-on method.

It’s ideal for professionals who want to:

  • Explore the potential of timber buildings and learn how to work to the highest standards

  • Acquire the fundamental basics of timber construction to avoid the most common mistakes

  • Combine theory, practice, and informal moments of exchange with experts and fellow participants
