The SAOLWood Project (@SAOLWood) aims to minimise the #carbon footprint of construction by delivering a comprehensive database of lifecycle impacts of locally sourced Irish timber solutions to displace high embodied carbon materials in our built environment!

It was great to welcome the Minister @pippa_hackett to the @TERG_UniGalway @uniofgalway to present work we have been doing over the past few years and the future plans for the research and education in the field of timber engineering @STEM_Galway @RyanInstitute

The @TERG_UniGalway PhD Researcher @SongGe7896 recently presented his work on the @SAOLWood @STEM_Galway at #IALCCE2023 looking at LCI data for Irish forest products to support decarbonising construction.

It’s really a great experience for me to attend the #IALCCE2023 and do the presentation for the @SAOLWood project. I learnt a lot of sustainable solutions in the construction industry around the world and made many new friends at the conference. Thanks to the @TERG_UniGalway. 😊

Today Prof. Annette Harte presents at #wcte2023 work carried out #infuturewood related to recovered timber #lca #circulareconomy

[Timber Engineering Research Group @TERG_UniGalway]

Our group is attending the World Conference on Timber Engineering 2023 in Oslo #WCTE2023. Over the coming days, our members will present 6 papers, while listening to inspiring talks and connect with research leaders. Here we go! 🪵🔬

Interesting article on how we can truly decarbonise the built environment but also highlights the barriers that currently exist ...

Did you see the Timber Engineering Research Group on @EcoEye last week speaking about the potential for timber in construction! Ep. 3: Into the Woods 14:40 🌲🌍 Catch up here: https://t.co/Np6YsqjaMB

[Timber Engineering Research Group @TERG_UniGalway]

The Timber Engineering Research Group @TERG_UniGalway would like to welcome @SongGe7896 who has joined us on the @SAOLWood focused on minimising the #carbon footprint of construction projects by promoting greater use of sustainable #timber solutions using LCA !🌍🌲

[Conan O'Ceallaigh @ConanOCeallaigh]

Delighted to host @dan462 @midlandsscience who came to speak and learn all about building with sustainable engineered wood products and hopefully inspire our future engineers to consider sustanable timber construction 🌲🌍👍

Attending #BuildwithWood-The Pathway to Net Zero Conference- where Prof Annette Harte will act as a panelist #timber @AvondaleBeyond

[Timber Engineering Research Group @TERG_UniGalway]

The recently opened Beyond the Trees Avondale, @AvondaleBeyond, was made using glulam beams from Irish Douglas fir and larch. @TERG_NUIG is glad to see the use of this locally grown timber. See a timelapse of the construction

More than 100 billion tonnes of CO2 emissions could be saved by 2100 if housing construction switches to timber instead of conventional steel and concrete, a new study by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PICIR) shows. #NerZeroNow https://t.co/OGczKZMf5C
