This Guide provides an introduction and overview of a research project that developed designs for four building types with timber solutions, as well as alternative designs with conventional steel portal or concrete construction. The project aimed to provide a source of timber costing information to building professionals by comparing the cost of timber commercial buildings to the cost of those constructed using traditional materials.The timber solutions were designed to optimise functional performance, constructability and cost effectiveness and provide guidance for compliance under the National Construction Code (NCC).The project investigated four building types:- A medium rise (7-storey) office building- A medium rise (8-storey) apartment building- A low rise (2-storey) aged care facility- A single-storey industrial shed.
