Preliminary/Feasibility Study

In timber structures the feasibility study is a complex job, but at the same time indispensable and it requires an in-deth and wide knowledge of the material. The most common questions we receive are, how much does it cost? Is it feasible in timber?

Value Engineering

“Value Engineering” or “Optimization” service is dedicated to builders, general contractors and manufacturers who, after having acquired an order, must look for solutions with the best cost, benefit an buildability ratio. Importanlty, early engagement with us can provide benefits in determining what value engineering options are available.

Structural Analysis

The Structural Analysis allows us to calculate the forces acting on a structure and to size the load-bearing elements to ensure the safety of occupants and the general public. This is the reason it is an extremely important engineering discipline.

Computational Design

Computational Design remains the future of design. By adopting these new computational methodologies taken from programming, it is possible to create algorithms that analyse and process data by generating 3D models.

DfMA

DfMA stands for “Design for Manufacture and Assembly” which means the creation of detailed and perfect drawings that can be used for programming CNC machines without errors/problems.

Building Physics

To engineer timber buildings, it is not enough to know structural analysis. It is necessary to have good knowledge of building physics to understand and foresee the behavior of the material in situ. Did you know that wood expands due to moisture changes but not temperature?

R&D

Constant research allows us to tease out and solve every problem, even the most complex. We could summarize our motto in two words "never stop!": We are not happy with the "off-the-shelf solution”, as we strive to optimize and make the impossible possible, but then we need to go beyond the regulations and the "standards" knowledge.
