Why invest in carpentry? Because wood is a material that benefits the following fields: Design • can be used to create any architectural form • natural beauty and great resistance • good seismic performance Energy • construction material with good insulating capacity • wooden buildings easily achieve excellent heat performance • little energy waste from production to structure construction Climate and environment protection • natural and renewable material • no material scraps during processing phases • clean, healthy and comfortable: very low CO2 emissions during production Execution •...

Global vision of wood in architecture If the past suggests the use of this millenary material, traditionally used for the construction of buildings, modern history reiterates it by increasingly promoting it at training level. Associations and university faculties all over the world are studying new ways for employing wood in modern architecture, committed as they are to the promotion of its use as construction material. From Europe to Latin America, from Central America to Russia there are many examples of countries actively involved in promoting and re-evaluating wood, considering it a...

Research activity University of Trento The scientific and research-based partnership with the University of Trento has resulted in an extensive experimental campaign on various types of fastening systems marketed by our company and commonly used for construction purposes, with the aim to verify their actual behaviour in the post-elastic phase, comparing the results with the models presented in the standards. The following parameters are also continuously tested: • the mechanical strength of fastening systems (tensile test) • the various systems’ performance in presence of corrosion in order...

CE marking How is CE product marking obtained? A producer can obtain CE marking in one of 2 ways, in function of the type of product and of the existence or not of harmonized standards. 1. Harmonized European Standards (EN) In the event that a harmonized European product standard exists, it provides information on geometric parameters, material types, types of tests to be carried out, quality control methods, contents of accompanying documentation, and any other parameter the product must comply with to be declared in conformity with said standard and then CE marked. Remember that when a...
