TIMBER EXPO 2014 < WELCOME / CONTENTS

WELCOME TO THE UK’S NATIONAL TIMBER SHOW A very warm welcome to everyone exhibiting and attending Timber Expo 2014. Showcasing an expanded range of timber technologies and wood products together with the widest display of new and innovative applications for timber within the built environment, this year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever before. 2014 will be Timber Expo’s second year at NEC Birmingham. The decision to relocate Timber Expo to arguably the biggest and best exhibition space last year proved a wise one: we saw a significant increase in visitor numbers due to improved accessibility and transport links. It really is a fantastic venue, and we are delighted that our show will continue to get the exposure it thoroughly deserves. But what really sets Timber Expo apart from other exhibitions is the added value that visitors can expect. It’s not just about seeing the latest products and innovations – although clearly that is important – it’s about hearing about the latest developments and the future of the industry from people whose opinions really matter. That is what this year’s Timber Focus seminar programme will deliver. TRADA has worked hard to pull the seminar programme together, with a collection of high calibre speakers that we believe is the strongest yet. Visitors will hear from big-name companies like Arup, Buro Happold, Skidmore Owings & Merrill, Hopkins, BAM, Sir Robert McAlpine, to name just a few. The half-day themed sessions, which will be delivered in two purpose-built timber-based theatres, will cover topics such as engineered wood, innovation in timber and its many uses. It’s certainly an impressive line-up and

we expect many of the seminars to be standing room only – so get there early! Meanwhile, two other theatres will be running Toolbox Talks – 50 sessions given by exhibitors. These proved very popular last year, both with the exhibitors who delivered them and visitors who listened. This is where you can hear the detailed nuts and bolts of how to build with specific timber building systems. They are well worth making time for. TRADA and Timber Expo joined forces again to sponsor this year’s TTJ Timber Innovation Award, which for 2014 was divided into two categories, one to highlight innovation in product development and one to highlight innovation in market development. Each winner has been given a speaker slot to fill a half-day seminar as part of the ‘Innovation: Designing the Future’ session on Tuesday 07 October. Innovation is the lifeblood of our industry and it is essential that we continue to support it. There can be no better platform than Timber Expo, where innovation is literally around every corner. Why not take a look at the Fingers Crossed sculpture, brought from the London Design Festival, hosted by Arup? It’s a perfect example of what can be achieved in timber. Or the small-scale model (made from 30,000 pieces of plywood) of the Slipstream sculpture currently adorning Heathrow Terminal 2? As the industry emerges from economic recession, it is hugely encouraging to see the levels of invention and determination that the timber industry continues to demonstrate. We are pleased to report a significant growth in exhibitors from mainland Europe, who are keen to show their ideas and products to a growing UK construction industry.

TIMBER EXPO > NEC BIRMINGHAM > 07-08 OCTOBER 2014

And, if you wanted evidence that the future of the timber industry is in strong hands, at the end of the first day, £5,000 worth of cash prizes will be awarded to students in TRADA’s Velocity design competition. Comments from students about the sustainability, versatility and diversity of timber suggest that it is a material that continues to excite the designers and architects of tomorrow. We are delighted by the support that our loyal members continue to offer, and by the enthusiasm of the wider industry. Timber, and Timber Expo, is in an excellent position to grow with all the hard work that has been done over the last few years by those in the industry. If you’re in any doubt, simply walk the aisles at Timber Expo: we promise you won’t be disappointed. Have a brilliant show and we look forward to seeing you again next year.

A BIG HELLO > TIMBER EXPO 2014

A BIG HELLO A very warm welcome to everyone at Timber Expo 2014. Our fourth year is turning into the most exciting year so far and the show is now well and truly ‘On the Map’. On the exhibition floor we have a record numbers of exhibitors representing the very best the timber industry has to offer with market leaders presenting superb products, exciting innovation and displaying high levels of sustainability.

Not only have we record numbers of exhibitors, but also the most overseas companies ever present at our event. I think this means we can proudly boast that Timber Expo has a global reputation. This means a constant and progressive presence of new products, innovative ideas to the UK market, combined with exciting integration between international companies and UK merchants and distributors. Moving the show to October has been particularly successful as it provides us with the opportunity of co-locating with W14 – the show which takes place every two years for machinery and timber furniture manufacturers. They are right next door to us with a walkway between the shows ensuring visitors can enjoy both events. The content of the seminars in our two Timber Focus Seminar Theatres is top drawer and is all free. The STA sponsored Seminar Theatre 1 is built by several members of the Structural Timber Association demonstrating the variety of products used in a timber frame building. Whilst the

Timber Focus Seminar Theatre 2 is sponsored and provided by the X-Lam Alliance and shows why working with engineered timber is so successful. Make sure you take some time to hear what is on offer at our Toolbox Talks as they are brimming with expertise. These are a showcase for exhibitors to explain and present the products displayed on their stands. As you enter the show you will be greeted by the Timber Connect stand, our striking information desk at the entrance to the show. Make it your first port of call to receive directions and information on any part of the event. As I tell everyone – timber is one of the construction industry’s finest natural assets and the timber industry really deserves a successful event to celebrate it. Many thanks to all our exhibitors and sponsors and enjoy the show... Loretta Sales Event Director Loretta.sales@timber-expo.co.uk

THE STRUCTURAL TIMBER ASSOCIATION > TIMBER EXPO 2014

PROFILE: The Structural Timber Association (STA) Call on Quality The Structural Timber Association (STA) has had a successful year since its rebrand from the UKTFA at last year’s Timber Expo. The association recently welcomed the full membership of the UKSIPS and collectively now forms one of the strongest trade bodies in the construction sector. Andrew Carpenter, chief executive of the STA, gives an update on recent activities. With positive economic news continuing to emanate from the construction sector, the STA has been working tirelessly in recent months to ensure our members are best positioned to capitalise on the upturn. In April, we were delighted to announce that Whitbread, one of the UK’s largest hotel and restaurant operators, will now only use the products and services of STA members in its future timberbased projects. The company, which operates household brands including Premier Inn and Costa Coffee, builds and manages hundreds of properties across the UK, with timber playing a key part in the company’s approach. At the end of May we held our first AGM since the launch of the STA. AGM since rebranding from the UK Timber Frame Association last September. The AGM saw a record turnout, as well as giving us the chance to welcome the membership of UKSIPS, which disbanded and whose members joined the STA at the start of April.

Sponsor of the Visitor Guide www.sudati.com.br

By joining forces, we feel that we are creating a stronger voice for our sector, by growing our influence and demonstrating the diversity our various technologies have within the construction industry as a whole. We were joined at the AGM by guest speaker Suzannah Nichol MBE of the National Specialist Contractors’ Council (NSCC), who highlighted the lack of payment terms within construction contracts and how this stymies industry growth and progress. This is an issue which the STA is tackling head-on, and as of 1 June, we have joined the NSCC and are asking members to consider adopting the principles of the Supply Chain Payment Charter. Peter Hansford, the Government’s Chief Construction Adviser, also joined us to give a keynote speech regarding the Construction 2025 strategy. As I am sure you will agree, the STA is currently on the up and there has never been a better time to be part of our success. The Association is recognised as the authoritative voice of the structural timber industry, providing news and views from across the sector. Members benefit from the most up-to-date technical and educational information, alongside recognised training initiatives. The auditing process which the Association has in place also helps to deliver high levels of client confidence, with the STA logo standing as a mark of quality and assurance. Now is an exciting time for timber and we look forward to building the future together.

GOLD SPONSOR > British Board of Agrément > TIMBER EXPO 2014

GOLD SPONSOR STAND: B20

Come and see us on stand B20 Our stand will be the focal point for a series of short presentations given by our technical teams specialising in energy and ventilation, materials and engineering. They are designed to give an insight into the methodologies used and recent process improvements which make our procedures more streamlined and efficient. In addition to this, two of our sector managers will lead two Toolbox Talks. Luke Adams, Sector Manager for Windows and Doors, will be talking about the fenestration and door sector and how manufacturers can ensure compliance to building regulations. George Higgs, Sector Manager for Building Services, will be holding a presentation covering solutions to the Building Regulations (part L) which requires that both U-values and junction ψ-values be calculated by ‘competent’ individuals. In his presentation, George will highlight a competency scheme to assess and certify competence in relation to U-value and condensation risk calculations. He will also cover how the BBA has helped to provide an accredited thermal bridging scheme. The aim of which is to provide junction ψ-values that are accurate, flexible in scope and easy to use.

The British Board of Agrément (BBA) is one of the UK’s leading notified bodies offering approval, certification and test services to manufacturers of products and systems supplying the construction industry. We also certify installers of these systems who can demonstrate their competence and professionalism. Developed over six decades, our expertise is aimed at helping companies realise their potential in today’s competitive environment. BBA approval is recognised by building control, government departments, architects, local authorities, specifiers, and industry insurers including the NHBC. At the show we will be promoting our certification, test, management systems and inspection services and highlighting some recent new developments. For instance we have recently assessed some new composite window systems with our first approval being Munster Joinery’s Passiv AluClad system. It consists of two frames made from different materials – the external one is powder-coated aluminium and the internal is made of laminated timber.

There is plenty to come and see at the BBA stand B20, situated right opposite the main entrance. For more information contact Phil Page, email: ppage@bba.star.co.uk

We have also approved a series of timber frame insulation systems and some of these clients are exhibiting at the show. Similarly we have expertise in assessing paints and wood stains suitable for use on joinery and timber cladding and fencing.

PRODUCTS SmartPly FR/FR Build OSB3 was developed in response to the Structural Timber Association’s (STA) “Design guide to separating distances during construction” for timber frame buildings above 600m2 total floor area. The panel is treated with flame retardant during the manufacturing process and designed to retain the normal woodworking characteristics of OSB3 rather than those of post treated alternatives. All products are manufactured using FSCcertified wood, with a fully audited chain of custody process in place at both SmartPly and Medite mills. The production facilities are local to the forest of origin minimizing the effect of transportation on the embodied energy of the products. The range of Medite MDF and SmartPly OSB products including the new product offerings are being exhibited on Stand D40 and Mike Harrison, Marketing Manager at Coillte Panel Products will be speaking about OSB innovation at the Toolbox Talks at Timber Expo. He will cover topics on what OSB is, how it is made, its performance characteristics, product applications and product innovation of SmartPly OSB.

Coillte Panel Products is part of Coillte, a leading natural resources company which owns and manages over 442,000 hectares of FSC® certified forest. Coillte Panel Products manufactures both highly regarded Medite MDF and SmartPly OSB products, which are synonymous with quality, choice and innovation. Coillte Panel Products places great importance on research and development. It focuses on investment in product advances, in order to keep its specifiers and end users at the forefront of the latest market developments. Product quality, performance and environmental credentials all combine under Coillte’s market-leading brands, Medite and SmartPly, providing reliability and reassurance to all sectors of the construction market. SmartPly recently launched ToughPly a general-purpose OSB3 board with a double-sided surface coating that provides a smooth and site-ready option with zero added formaldehyde.

FERMACELL – first name in the frame For more information visit: www.fermacell.co.uk email: fermacell-uk@xella.com

Fermacell gypsum fibreboard is manufactured to the highest standards of German engineering, it has a simple homogenous composition – recycled gypsum, cellulose fibres from post-consumer waste paper and water, with no added chemicals. All by-products and off cuts are fed back into the production cycle. Fermacell has been tested to European, UK and STA standards. Growing in popularity across the whole drywall and timber frame market in the UK, Fermacell Gypsum Fibreboards have been widely used across Europe for over 40 years. Fermacell has a Category 1 racking strength, replacing plywood and plasterboard solutions and with its inherent robustness, it enhances the structural stability of the building. Fermacell can be installed before the building envelope is complete and it has a class O fire and Class 1 surface spread of flame certification. Fermacell can help minimise the risk of ‘onsite’ fires by containing the flames within the building and reducing the risk of fire spreading to other structures – Fermacell features in the STA Code of Practice. What’s more, Fermacell’s superior loadholding strength lets you fix cupboards, shelves and radiators without the need for patressing and with our large format boards, joints can be kept to a minimum. Fermacell offers greater acoustic performance with fewer layers than other traditional materials, enabling slimmer partitions and simple party wall constructions. A single layer of 12.5mm fermacell, with no insulation to either side of a timber stud achieves Rw41dB. Fermacell gypsum fibreboards offer architects, installers and self builders all the benefits of solid blockwork with the speed and flexibility drywall, combined with improved impact, acoustic, fire, moisture and load hanging properties. Gary Carter, General Manager at Fermacell UK, says: “The innovative design and versatility of our products provides a wealth of benefits for both commercial and domestic timber frame projects, which we are looking forward to demonstrating at Timber Expo.”

FAST Timber Engineered Separating Floor for Timber Frame Currently the majority of separating floors for timber frame are constructed with ‘I’ or Metal Web joists with suspended ceilings beneath. The detailing for acoustic purposes can mean a deep floor build up that will include an acoustic floating floor with a depth of over 100mm in certain instances. Furthermore, in order to meet Part E (England & Wales) airborne sound insulation requirements (minimum 45 DnTw + Ctr), the acoustic floor and ceiling are critical to the performance, and mean that the use of shallow floating floors is very limited. Changes in 2010 to the Scottish Building Standards (Section 5), have increased the airborne requirements to 56dB (minimum value), which requires designers to typically build to achieve 60dB. The timber frame industry has struggled to achieve this and maintain a relative shallow build up. IWSFloor joists can be used in E-FT-2 make-up at 600 centres. • Minimises cold bridging • Accommodates wide tolerances on-site • Integral ceiling structure • Uses sustainable building materials • Does not require hangers or proprietary end details • Enables short lead times • Meets Part E (England and Wales) and Section 5 (Scotland) sound insulation requirements IWS Transit System The IWS-IMS is generally supplied as a combined cassette system, however for sites there this is not practical a kit form is available. The IWS-Transit System is pre-fabricated with both the floor and ceiling cassettes assembled off-site in one unit. • Greatly increasing speed onsite • Improving ease of installation • Reducing room required on-site for storage • Reducing waste • Maintaining build quality • Creates a safe working platform • Can be pre-insulated • No need to cut standard blocks (masonry solution) • Depth specific thermal block for nib coursing • No temporary bracing.

IWS FAST SEPARATING FLOORS IWS in partnership with Edinburgh Napier University and Icopal Monarfloor Acoustics have developed innovative separating floors for both timber frame and the first practical timber engineered separating floor for masonry construction, the FAST Timber Floor. FAST Timber Engineered Separating Floor for Masonry Currently the majority of separating floors for masonry are constructed with precast concrete planks with suspended ceilings beneath. This may require substantial foundations to support the load, valuable construction time is lost waiting for drying and curing of screeds, and there is a possibility of high thermal bridging and air leakage via the slab / wall interface. Furthermore, in order to meet Part E (England & Wales) airborne sound insulation requirements (minimum 45 DnTw + Ctr), the masonry precast plank must be a minimum 150mm with a density of 300Kg/m2, with a screed having a density of 80Kg/m2. The ceiling beneath must have a void of 150mm. This detail adds significant weight and volume of material, this together with their delivery and manoeuvring on site may cause issues given access limitations. Changes in 2010 to the Scottish Building Standards (Section 5), have increased the airborne requirements to 56dB (minimum value), which requires designers to typically build to achieve 60dB. The aforementioned masonry construction may not meet these new requirements without increasing slab depths. Through its several unique and innovative details the FAST® Timber Floor: • Minimises cold bridging • Accommodates wide tolerances on-site • Integral ceiling structure • Uses sustainable building materials • Does not require masonry hangers or proprietary end details • Enables short lead times • Meets Part E (England and Wales) and Section 5 (Scotland) sound insulation requirements

Vandecasteele Houtimport presents a modern, clear and professional approach to timber supply to a very traditional timber industry. Vandecasteele Houtimport, a family-run company, was founded in 1883 and Urbain Vandecasteele, who ran the company for 60 years, insisted on keeping the company’s family spirit. His son Stefaan Vandecasteele took over the company in 2000 and, together with his twin sister Marie-Christine Vandecasteele and their colleagues, he seeks to promote cordial relations with customers and suppliers, based on mutual trust. Stefaan’s son, Louis, joined the company in February 2013. In summary: • Vandecasteele has 16ha of warehousing on a 60ha site in Aalbeke • It can deliver anywhere in Europe in 48 hours; • The 130-year-old family company can stock up to 130,000m³ • Business is split 50/50 between hardwood and softwood • The company stocks FSC and PEFC timber. Its experience and dynamism have made it one of the leading timber companies in Belgium. Sixty acres of undercover storage and a 130,000m³ stock of finely presented hardwoods and softwoods allow the company to satisfy every order. The Europe-wide distribution facilities provide efficient delivery within one to three days and a modern machining mill meets the needs of customers for high-quality timber products. A large fleet of company lorries regularly covers most of mainland Europe, responding to customers’ demands in the shortest lead times possible. This approach to business in satisfying the changing needs of the industry has been an ongoing success. Vandecasteele is constantly assessing market demands and updating its systems accordingly. In fact, it develops new systems to manage a growing business almost monthly.

ISO-Chemie The technical requirements for energy efficient and long term building seals are increasing all the time. Our innovative product solutions have a positive effect on the energy balance of buildings, at the same time promoting a healthy internal climate. Factors such as airtightness, permanent movement, weather resistance, emissions free, thermal and acoustic insulation as well as humidity and fire protection are important properties of our building seals which conform to multinational standards. ISO-Chemie has a range of products which bring specific benefits when building with timber, or using timber components in construction. Not the least of which is overcoming large differential movement. Constantly improving and producing new innovative products is what we do. A good example on display at Timber Expo 2014 will be the new ISO-TOP WINFRAMER. This allows the windows and doors to be positioned in front of the internal wall so that they sit within the insulation layer, without the need for complex metal brackets which create non repeating thermal bridging. ISO-TOP WINFRAMER can support 200 kilos per linear metre, so even large Bi-Fold doors are not a problem. Any future replacement is also simplistic without excess renovation work as the window or door can be fixed directly into ISO-TOP WINFRAMER.
