Forum Wood Building Nordic 2021 – Growing beyond being a challenger: Wood Building in the 2020th.
The 10th Forum Wood Building Nordic takes place from the 22nd to 24th of September 2021 as a digital event. It is the main conference for wood building and timber construction in the Nordic countries and part of the international Forum Holzbau organization. The conference brings together academics and practitioners to exchange experiences and learn from the forefront in the field. The program promises high-class lectures from leading actors within research, industry and architecture – all focusing on wood as a building material.
The overall topic of this year’s WBN is Growing beyond being a challenger – Wood Building in the 2020th Reviewing the past decade, it can be realized that the role of the material wood in the building industry changed a lot. From being a minor actor in the early stages of its development, the wood building sector took many steps towards the role it has today. The demand grows and so does the supply. This is true for both the knowledge about and the wooden buildings themselves. The number of actors is growing in both industry and academia and as the knowledge increases, so do the areas of applications.
The contribution of the wood building sector to the development of a sustainable society is growing in significance from year to year! Embedded in the Sustainable Development Goals, solutions are provided that do not only challenge traditional ones but claim to be self-evident alternatives for many areas of application.
