Oil had a good afternoon talking all things timber in Lewes, East Sussex, last Friday.

A bit of a trek from Devon, but well worth the journey for some interesting conversations, new connections and the chance to hear different perspectives from across the timber industry. Plenty learnt along the way, and even a few fellow wood scientists in the room! Thanks to everyone involved for an interesting afternoon.

From fallen trees to a standing structure in just a few months...

Our latest addition at Buckland has been built almost entirely from spruce trees brought down in a recent storm, along with one Douglas fir.
Every tree came from within around 200 metres of where the structure now stands. The timber was cut using a mobile sawmill, brought to our factory for machining, then returned to site for installation.

There's no glulam involved in this one. Instead, the structure uses solid sawn timber, engineered to work with the natural movement of green timber as it dries. The result is a 15m × 25m timber shed, erected in just two days.

It's also fitting that the new shed stands on the site of the original sawmill run by Bill Blight, one of Buckland Timber's founders.

Furzefield is nearing completion!

A few recent photos from this self-build project just outside Brighton, where the spruce glulam structure is coming together. It’s been a particularly tricky build, with parts of the existing building needing to be incorporated into the new structure. But the results are looking good!

Our CPD day last month proved so popular we've decided to offer you another opportunity to come along and learn how glulam is made!

Two sessions are available - 10:00am and 2:00pm.

Places are limited, so if you're interested in joining us, simply fill out the form here to express your interest, and we'll be in touch:

Believe it or not, you’re looking at a mile of timber!

It might not look like it, but the timber stacked on this pallet measures exactly one mile when laid end to end. That’s 1,609 metres of timber in one rather unassuming stack. Sometimes it’s hard to appreciate just how much timber goes into a project until you start adding it all up!

A nice look at the completed Float House, which was shortlisted in two categories at this year’s Structural Timber Awards.

This short film was shared with us by TiggColl and created by the metal roofing company involved in the project, giving a great look at the finished building and its setting.

Float House was shortlisted for both Private Housing Project of the Year and Custom & Self-Build Project of the Year, and went on to win the Custom & Self-Build award. It's great to see the finished project and hear how much it means to its owners!

There’s nothing quite like seeing how glulam is made.

Back in September, we welcomed a group of architects, engineers and industry professionals to Buckland Timber for a CPD session and factory tour. From timber grading and manufacturing to connection detailing, specification and sourcing, it was an opportunity to get a closer look at the processes behind the finished product. We’ve had some lovely feedback from those who joined us, so we thought we’d share a few of their comments alongside some photographs from the day.

Thanks again to everyone who came along! If you're interested in attending a future CPD at Buckland Timber, please do get in touch!

Installation underway at Bruton Place, Mayfair.

A new office development is taking shape, with spruce glulam GL32 supplied by .
There are some particularly tricky connections to work through on this one, with Oli from Buckland working closely with the Mint team to support the installation. Good progress so far, and a few photos showing the structure coming together on site.

Installer: Mint
Main contractor: Red
Spruce glulam GL32: Hasslacher

Nearly there at Wycombe Abbey Custodians Lodge.
We installed the Douglas fir glulam for Life Build back in the summer, finished with a light grey SiOO:X treatment. As well as the main glulam structure, we also manufactured the timber window fins – now all coming together as the building nears completion
