Timber Engineering B.Eng.
What is Timber Engineering?
Timber engineering is a branch of structural engineering and, as such, a specialised field of general civil engineering.
Timber engineers design and calculate timber structures. They are able to plan and realise complex structures from an economic, ecological and sustainable perspective. This requires comprehensive specialist knowledge of wood as a raw material as well as extensive knowledge in the fields of structural design, building structure and building physics. The field of activity of timber engineers increasingly includes aspects of environmental protection and energy saving.
