Wooden structure design
Wood construction is trendy, aesthetic and ecological. The use of wood in construction is being promoted because it is a climate-wise material. Our wood structure experts are familiar with this material important to Finns, as well as its usage possibilities and benefits in construction. Sweco has a long history and highly versatile know-how in wood construction – that is why embracing the growing demand comes naturally to Sweco. We are the leading Finnish designer of wooden structures.
Our experts guarantee high-quality and competitive solutions. We manage all wood structure systems: modular element structures, column and beam structures, CLT & LVL solid wood construction and frame structures. We co-operate closely with our experts and operators in the field, ensuring the best solutions for the entire lifecycle of the project.
We are constantly developing safer and more energy-efficient options. We actively participate in our clients’ concept and product development processes and utilise our innovative design tools in them.
We are closely involved in organisations in the field to promote wood construction in Finland, utilising our spearhead projects and our extensive network that also includes international sites.
Information modelling and our digital solutions make designing a wooden building more efficient and strengthen co-operation between different operators by utilising information models in an increasingly versatile manner.
Our know-how covers all services related to the consultation, design, research, development and inspection of wooden structures in different types of projects that include sites such as schools, apartment buildings, hotels and office buildings.
Our designers, who specialize in the construction and installation of wooden roofs, develop and design a cost-effective and safe wooden roof for your property.
We are also involved in Sweco’s international wood projects across the globe and in our clients’ export projects.
