Timber buildings are no longer limited to cottages and pergolas. Advances in timber building construction-including engineered products like CLT and LVL-allow designers to create mid-rise apartments, schools and commercial spaces that rival concrete and steel. Benefits include:

Why choose timber for your next build?

  • Low embodied carbon: Responsibly sourced timber stores CO2 rather than emitting it.
  • Speed on site: Prefabricated timber building systems arrive ready to install, cutting programme time.
  • Design flexibility: Warm aesthetics, easy machining and lightweight transport make timber ideal for both heritage renovations and contemporary forms.

Key product categories

ArchiPro’s timber range covers every stage of the build. Navigate directly to what you need:

1. Structural requirements

Confirm spans, loads and connection details align with AS 1684 Timber Framing Code. Engineered products like CLT may require bespoke engineering design certificates.

2. Durability & treatment

Select species or preservative treatments to match the exposure class-from H2 interior framing to H4 in-ground contact for landscaping or building a timber fence.

3. Fire & acoustic performance

For BAL zones or multi-residential projects, look for products tested to AS 1530. Announce FRL ratings and incorporate acoustic insulation to achieve NCC targets.

4. Sustainability credentials

Demand chain-of-custody certification (FSC, Responsible Wood) and verify suppliers’ environmental product declarations (EPDs).

Cost guide

Pricing for building with timber fluctuates with species, grade and board thickness. Indicative supply-only rates:

  • Structural pine studs: $7–$9 per lineal metre
  • Hardwood cladding: $90–$140 per m²
  • CLT panels: $350–$450 per m³

Factor in transport, cranage (for panels) and finishing oils. Prefab systems can offset labour costs by 20–30% according to industry case studies.

Installation tips

  • Pre-drill hardwoods to avoid splitting.
  • Use galvanised or stainless fixings, especially in coastal zones.
  • Apply end-seal preservative to cut edges on site.
  • Maintain 6–8% moisture content for interior joinery to minimise movement.
