"Australian Architects can design structures with the form and feel of timber, now with the spanning capabilities needed in the commercial and civic space"
"100% renewable, sustainable plantation-grown timber – achieving large spans with natural beauty"
"Timber provides impressive spans with a lighter footprint than steel or concrete – and has the added benefit of sequestering carbon in the structure"
"Curved timber structures over broad spans are now a reality – with Timberbuilt Solution’s curved plywood box beams"
"Timberbuilt Solutions’ BIM (Building Information Modelling) enables us to take your 3D model so we can model the structural timber components – saving time and money while achieving your architectural vision"
"From small commercial structures (400 m2) to large (25,000 m2), Timberbuilt Solutions can provide design, engineering and prefabrication solutions for a precise installation with low on-site costs"

Case studies index-
The curved box sections precision manufactured from 3D Cadwork models, then glued and screwed together
-
All curved members, each slightly different, are clearly labeled for easy identification
-
Curved box sections loaded and ready to be delivered
Location:Donvale Victoria
Architect:Graeme Law & Associates Pty Ltd
Builder:JC Rawlings Pty Ltd
The curved box beams were delivered in full and on time and successfully installed over 3 days without any installation problems whatsoever. JC Rawlings said that the on-site carpenters had bets running about the chances of all the holes being in the correct location, and the lengths and angle dimensions of the box beams. Perfect!
100% plantation grown timber products were used for a great environmental outcome
-
Light weight construction means the curved members are easily lifted into place
-
Accurate manufacture meant that bolts simply slide in for rapid assembly
-
