How can fungal mycelium be used as a biological binder to manufacture sustainable building construction materials? Does this also work in industrial mass production? You can discuss this in person with Dr. Henrik-Alexander Christ, scientist at Fraunhofer WKI. The “Salon der Wissenschaft” (Science Salon) invites you once again to come and talk to researchers from the Braunschweig region. There will be no lectures; the focus is on personal dialogue. Registration is required.

Specialist for bonding in wooden construction (3 days)

Specialist for repair of load-bearing timber components using adhesives (5 days)
incl. “Specialist for bonding in wooden construction”

Basic knowledge is imparted on the execution of bonding work for the manufacture or repair of load-bearing timber components. A written examination can be taken in both courses. This can be used to prove successful participation in accordance with DIN 1052-10.

Both courses are recognized in accordance with § 6 of the training regulations of the Lower Saxony Chamber of Engineers.

The “International Wood Construction Conference” offers experts from the timber construction industry a platform for comprehensive information and exchange about building with timber structures or timber constructions. In the accompanying exhibition, manufacturers and research institutions from the timber construction sector will show new application examples.

The Fraunhofer WKI will have its own booth to present current research results and developments.
