What's new

On December 13, we held a webinar on the weighting of climate and environment in public procurement. What do the regulations mean, and how do public enterprises meet this in practice? Among other things, we heard about how Hamar Municipality has invited the construction industry to dialog meetings to get input for the design of requirements and criteria.

A short and optimistic summary from the Climate-friendly buildings project Innlandet, which has completed one year of climate mobilization in the construction industry: Great commitment and willingness to share! We look forward to the continuation in 2025.

We're delighted to announce that architect Julie Gedde-Dahl has joined the Norwegian Wood Cluster as project manager. She has now started visiting the members - "Nice people and great commitment to wood construction. I look forward to the continuation," she says.

"Acoustics is an Achilles' heel for strengthening the competitiveness of wooden buildings up to 6 storeys high. - The "3LYD" project will create a sound database for floor partitions in wooden buildings, and we expect great benefit from the project," says project manager Julie Gedde-Dahl of Norwegian Wood Cluster.

In the fall of 2025, NTNU at Gjøvik will launch a new 2-year master's program in building informatics and wood structures. - "The Norwegian Wood Cluster has cheered on the plans and is pleased that the new program is now starting up," says cluster leader Berit Sanness.
