Industrial timber construction - then, now and in the future
Prefabricated construction elements are nothing new, but the way in which they’re handled offers major potential for development. Lars Stehn, Professor of Construction Management and Building Technology at the Department of Civil, Environmental and Natural Resources Engineering at Luleå University of Technology, is researching this.
Timber project drive construction industry forward
Fifty kilometres outside Stockholm, in the small town of Bålsta, something is happening that’s never been done before, and that nobody really knows how to do as yet. Not even Logicenters, which will be implementing the project. And yet the company is working on erecting the world’s first carbon-free logistics hall. A massive building, more than 20,000 square metres in area and made almost entirely of timber, which will produce no emissions at all during its life-cycle.

Two-thirds of forest owners’ income is derived from sawmills, and a competitive sawmill industry is in many ways the engine that drives the forestry sector. This is why SCA has invested close to one billion kronor in the development and efficiency of its sawmills in recent years with the aim of maximising the value generated from each tree all times.
