The focus is on recurring standardized timber components, the use of production residues, and solutions that reduce material consumption, simplify maintenance, and extend the lifespan of structures.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of the seminar is to gather practical feedback from builders and manufacturers on the applicability of the system currently under development. We will discuss how standardized or flexible a construction system should be, the opportunities for using reclaimed or lower-grade timber, and how procurement models and collaboration frameworks influence the implementation of sustainable solutions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PROGRAMME<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-contrast=\"none\"><i class=\"fas
