Question: What is the construction industry doing, or what might it do in the future, to make buildings more climate friendly?

Mike Maughan (go.uidaho.edu/3JxTiNT) is an associate professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering (go.uidaho.edu/3UvMKpc) at University of Idaho. His research focuses on materials development, advanced manufacturing, design and the intersection among them. Today he will discuss a project called PrinTimber (go.uidaho.edu/3wfcRHF), which he hopes will change the future of construction.
