If you have questions about timber products and systems, don’t forget to check out Timber Development UK’s Knowledge Library!
TDUK members have access to our entire Knowledge Library, which now contains even more Knowledge Sheets answering common questions about every aspect of building, supplying and working with wood.
First launched in 2023, TDUK has been continually adding new resources ever since, and there are now more than 100 Timber Knowledge Sheets covering a huge rage of timber topics. Some of the latest publications include:
- Timber Decking
- Timber Cladding
- Passive Fire Protection
- Timber Acoustic Regulations
- Timber Roofs
Plus, using our Knowledge Library you can also refresh your memory on other key timber topics for merchants looking to expand their timber offer, such as our C16/C24 span tables, Timber Grading and Timber Sizes guidance.
The Knowledge Sheets have been developed by TDUK in partnership with experts from Edinburgh Napier University, as well as input from our unrivalled membership network of timber professionals.
You’ll find introductions to all kinds of timber components, and everything from the day-to-day (such as Loft Conversions or Decorative Timber Flooring) to more specialised timber systems is covered.
Different methods of timber construction are described in an accessible and easy to understand fashion. You can also read our introduction to Lightweight Timber Frame Construction of learn about Modern Methods and Offsite Timber Construction.
The Library also contains plenty of regulatory guidance to help ensure you are always compliant with UK Building Regulations, as well as ‘best practice’ information for working on site and handling timber products.
