About this episode

Episode 42 discusses the Future Framing Initiative and features insights from industry leaders Ian Tyson and Kylan Low on the future of timber framing.

The Future Framing Initiative is the industry's blueprint for building more homes, faster, using modern methods of construction and lightweight timber framing. In Episode 42, we speak with two people who understand what it takes to move an industry forward. Ian Tyson spent a decade as CEO of Timberlink Australia & New Zealand from its formation in 2013 to his retirement in 2023, transforming a traditional structural timber manufacturer into an engineered timber and construction solutions leader, and serving the broader sector through the AFPA Board and as Chair of the Softwood Manufacturing Chamber. He knows what progress looks like, and what it costs. Kylan Low is a structural engineer whose career has been dedicated to advancing timber construction in Australia across design, research, mass timber systems, prefabrication, and structural standards. He's working at the coalface of what comes next. Together, they make the case for why timber framing's best days are still ahead. #WoodChat #Timber #FFI #HousingCrisis #MassTimber #Construction #ForestProducts
