Head of the Centre for Wood Science and Technology, Dan Ridley-Ellis, is on the judging panel for the 2018 Structural Timber Awards.
These awards - covering several categories including social housing, new products, and buildings for education and healthcare - reflect the impressive innovation and growth within the timber industry. They are a rich vein of stunning, inspirational architectural design and engineering excellence. Entries demonstrate the construction industry’s growing confidence in the use of engineered timber - which Edinburgh Napier University has been supporting through the work of the Institute for Sustainable Construction.

Dan says "The Structural Timber Awards is a great showcase for innovation in building with wood – both in architectural design and engineering excellence. For that reason I’m delighted to be on the judging panel."
