Mini-symposia

Tall buildings – case studies

EmailMaurizio Piazza, EmailRoberto Tomasi

University of Trento, Italy

 

This mini-symposium intends to collect papers regarding tall timber buildings already fabricated, highlighting the problems and the solutions adopted for design and execution.

The mini-symposium will highlight what are the real problems which may be encountered when a tall building is erected. In this sense, the experience gained during the construction is of fundamental importance and it is crucial that this information valuable for the development of tall timber buildings can be shared and discussed.

The list of presenters includes, primarily, the designers of existing timber tall buildings, so that it is possible for attendants to understand main issues regarding those buildings, not only the ones involving structural design.
