CIRCERB: Research Associates NSERC industrial research chair on Eco responsible wood construction
• All activities relating to building construction from design todelivery, including building envelope, mechanical systems and thecomfort of occupants
• Combinations of skills in civil, industrial, mechanical, woodchemical engineering as well as industrial design, architecture andlaw school
• Realistic and viable solutions for the construction industry• Eco-responsible practices may easily be adopted by the sector
Efforts cover the entire construction value creation network inorder to develop eco-responsible solutions, using wood to reducethe environmental footprint of buildings.
