Timberbuilt Solutions met the challenge of designing a custom structural solution for a unique building. Strong environmental outcomes were also produced with the use of totally plantation grown LVL and plywood products.

By modeling the members and their components in 3D, Timberbuilt Solutions could produce predictable outcomes in manufacture and performance

The Timberbuilt Solution

  1. Consult with JC Rawlings and Graeme Law Architects to understand the design challenge
  2. Conceive and engineer the timber solution
  3. Price and budget the project and set expectations, discuss timing of site requirements, plan and program manufacture; then client sign-off
  4. Provide engineering and schematics to client for approval
  5. Receive approval
