Symposium

FeuerTrutz symposium on fire protection in timber construction

Wood is experiencing a significant upswing as a building material, but it places high demands on architects, authorities and construction experts, particularly with regard to fire protection. The revised Model Timber Construction Guideline (MHolzBauRL) introduces far-reaching changes that require in-depth knowledge and careful implementation.


Experienced specialists will highlight the key content of the new guidelines in practice-oriented presentations. They will explain the flexible design options available in the event of deviations, the technical and legal restrictions that must be observed, and the points to which approval authorities and planning offices should pay particular attention.


In addition to technical input, the event offers numerous opportunities for direct exchange: in moderated discussion rounds, participants can ask the speakers individual questions. Furthermore, breaks and networking formats invite participants to network with colleagues from the industry and share experiences.


The conference is aimed at anyone who wants to take an in-depth look at the current challenges and requirements of fire protection in modern timber construction.
