Timber construction is different than solid construction, but not more complicated. The guideline provides assistance in the planning and awarding of municipal timber construction projects and highlights the special features compared to solid construction. With the right planning, awarding and construction processes, construction speed as well as profitability and sustainability of construction projects can be decisively improved. The guide provides:

• practical examples of municipal timber construction projects,
• an overview of environmental certificates for building with renewable raw materials,
• a checklist on timber construction aspects in the procurement procedure.

The brochure can be ordered in the FNR media library for a small nominal fee.
