Murdoch University Case Study - Pushing the Limits of Post and Beam

The New Academic Building is a transformative project for Murdoch University and for the national Higher Education sector more broadly. The project consists of a unique timber structure, over 130 meters long and comprised of four storeys. In this episode we're speaking with the project team; Edward Berry the Architect from Lyons, Jamie Cook the builder from Multiplex, Pratik Shrestha the Engineer from Aurecon and Mario Busolli a supplier from XLam Dolomiti about;

• The special focus on building modelling,
• Managing the supply chain during design,
• And of course the lessons learned for all the team

 

If you want to learn more about designing or building with timber, I recommend you go to the WoodSolutions Website and download the Technical Design Guides:
