FPS COST Action E55
Modelling of the performance of timber structures

Descriptions are provided by the Actions directly via e-COST.

The main objective of this Action is to provide the basic framework and knowledge required for the efficient and sustainable use of timber as a structural and building material. Focus is directed on the aspects of design, construction, assessment and maintenance of competitive and high performance timber structures. The Action mainly considers high performance structures where the load-bearing capacity is of predominant interest; for example, structures such as timber bridges, large-span halls and roofs, and also load-bearing elements of other types of timber structures.
