Sweetchestnut timber samples have arrived at Cambridge University Engineering Department from Inwood, and material testing is well underway including Particle Image Velocimetry. Derived stiffness properties will be inserted into a detailed Finite Element model of the lattice roof at Balliol College Oxford with Niall Mclaughlin Architects & BAM construct UK. Watch this space for updates including full-scale testing and modelling outputs.
