Frame Australia has become established as the major national event for engineered timber and building pre-fabrication over the past 14 years, and the 2012 conference and exhibition display will be held on Monday and Tuesday June 18 and 19 at the Park Hyatt Melbourne.

The expanded 2012 Frame Australia program will include a focus on building and construction with increased dialogue and information exchange on residential and commercial building trends, and awareness of new BIM digital model technology that will transform the construction supply chain.

The conference provides an opportunity for building design and construction professionals to engage with the timber, wood products and pre-fabrication industry, both to gain knowledge and develop contacts to assist in meeting the challenges of future buildings using more wood as a construction material as an alternative to more carbon intensive materials.
