Recently, the popularity has been increasing around mid-rise timber buildings. Having fully exposed structures has made a lot of sense at a certain height. However, we can only unlock the use of timber in high-rise buildings if it is combined with steel and concrete, with consideration of fire, acoustics and structural performance. In this episode we're speaking with Nick Hewson, Product Development Manager at Viridi about: How light-frame can be utilized for mid-rise buildings What systems are most suitable for apartment and office buildings How we can combine materials to unlock new heights for timber If you want to learn more about designing or building with timber, I recommend you go to the WoodSolutions Website and download the Technical Design Guides: https://www.woodsolutions.com.au/publications I recommend watching the WoodSolutions weekly webinars.

As ATEC's CEO and strategic leader Ben has an unwavering commitment to unlocking the potential in others. Ben brings over 14 years experience in managing teams across social enterprise, international development and corporate sectors. Before his role at ATEC* Ben worked as National Development Manager at SSE, Product Development Manager at Oxfam, and Retail Sales Executive at Westfield.Globally cooking with wood kills roughly three times as many people each year as traffic accidents – the majority of fatalities being women due to smoke inhalation.ATEC* is a startup social enterprise that produces, sells and distributes patented biodigester systems for small-scale farmers globally. ATEC* is a joint venture between Engineers Without Borders and Live & Learn, has installed over 1,000 systems since it commenced and is now expanding globally to a market of over 205 million households.Solving clean cooking will contribute more to the global economy than the national GDP of Italy and offset more carbon emissions than the global airline industry. Women and girls bear the greatest cost of a lack of access to clean, modern cooking solutions in the form of poor health and safety. This is costing women and the wider community $3,000 per household per year.ATEC's unique Impact Flywheel is the strategic core of how we solve clean cooking. Through creating scalable partnerships between BoP households and international capital markets, our flywheel enables ATEC* to offer high quality, low cost IoT cookstoves to BoP markets at scale.
