The Division of Timber Structures offers courses on traditional and modern timber structures, with a special focus on glued laminated timber. To main directions of scientific activity and teaching aims belong: traditional and historical timber structures, mechanics of wood and wood-based materials, innovative timber structures (textile, origami based folded plates), glued laminated and cross laminated timber. Moreover, the Division members conduct research on smart and deployable structures, tensegrity, tensairity, origami and other light-weight systems. The Division offers following scientific and research services: scientific and technical expertise on timber structures, design projects, modernization and revitalization of timber buildings, computational modeling of structures (FEM), unconventional structures (tensegrity, deployable structures).
