#Sustainability#LCA#TimberRevolution
The Timber in #Construction Working Group is up and running! A group of stakeholders committed to supporting the growth of the Irish #forest#products sector and increasing the use of #timber for the mitigation of climate change while addressing the housing crisis in Ireland
The @SAOLWood project has completed its review of Irish & best international #LCA practices in #wood construction. 26 EPD databases & 36 EPD for timber products were examined as well as the LCA methodologies for building projects in 29 countries. More info on the link below ๐@

Itโs 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. ๐
The @TERG_UniGalway Research Group visited @ecctimber to discuss the recent developments in the grading and production of timber products in Ireland and to see their sophisticated sawing and kiln drying facilities! ๐ฒ๐๐
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 !๐๐ฒ
