Kiwi timber expert for international bridge conference

Friday 9 May 2025

 
Daniel Moroder will be the kiwi keynote speaker at the International Conference on Timber Bridges, to be held in Rotorua in June.

Daniel will describe the past, present, and future of timber bridge design in New Zealand. He will start with a historical survey before describing the design and construction of the recently opened Onetai highway bridge near Thames, the first timber highway bridge in New Zealand for over 50 years.

Looking to the future, Daniel will describe the Timber Bridge Guidance Document being developed for the NZ Transport Agency, Waka Kotahi. This Guidance Document will become part of the NZTA Bridge Manual in due course.

Daniel is a well-known timber expert in New Zealand, being immediate past president of the New Zealand Timber Design Society, and Technical Director at PTL Structural & Fire. He has designed and managed construction of multi-storey timber buildings and bridges, with a focus on practical and cost-effective solutions.
