TRADA introduces Fundamentals of timber webinar series

2 June 2021


TRADA’s online programme Learn with TRADA Live has gone from strength to strength since its initial launch in January this year. Almost a thousand people have signed up so far, proving that the online learning space – which has been so enlivened by the recent restrictions – is here to stay, even as the world begins to open up again.

The next series Fundamentals of timber will begin in July and is anticipated to draw a crowd, with BM TRADA timber experts Phil O’Leary and Lewis Taylor – experienced teachers within the field – leading attendees through a whole host of timber topics for the rest of the year, including:

  • What you need to consider when using and specifying timber
  • Trees and the nature of wood
  •  Wood and timber properties
  • Moisture in timber

This series is intended as an introductory resource for newcomers to the material and those looking to construct a strong foundational layer of knowledge upon which to build with the support of a trusted authority like TRADA. Consequently, the series has been designed to facilitate the learning experience for both regular and occasional attendees, with each session self-contained but adding to the overall, comprehensive picture of timber.

Learn with TRADA Live sessions are free to all TRADA members as part of their membership benefits. However, non-members can attend each session for £30 + VAT.
