Project: GATE
Main instrumentsGATE is an INTERREG III C Network project with five partners working together to challenge the perception of timber as traditional and old fashioned – helping to prove it is a modern building material which can cut construction times, increase design flexibility so providing major energy conservation and sustainability benefits.
- improve the interregional cooperation and the regional planning and policy in the partner regions in favor of timber usage
- increase the number of architects and engineers who seize timber as a part of modern buildings
- anchor the usage of timber in education and further education (especially in building construction)
- encourage the exchange of knowledge and carry on the best practices between and within the regions
- improve the standards in wood management and expedite the acceptation of wood certification
