Throughout the summer, it offers architects, artists, and people interested in art and culture the opportunity to visit the exhibition in the historic gardens of the Villa Medici. One of the seven cabin projects has benefited from the intervention of Atelier PoCo, a French customer of Dlubal Software, for its design and technical study.
At Metalúrgica Vera SRL, a metalworking company in Paraguay, metal structures are manufactured and assembled for various projects. One such project is the Velodrome, a sports facility prepared for cycling competitions.
The "Bamboo Stalactite" is a project representing Vietnam at the 16th edition of the Venice Biennale for Architecture. La Biennale di Architettura di Venezia is an international exhibition held every 2 years in Venice (Italy), in which architects from all over the world participate, presenting their projects.
The Infrastructure department of SDEA Engineering Solutions has extensive experience in the railroad sector, especially in designing electrification using overhead contact lines (OCS/OLE), where it has developed projects for high-speed trains in England and streetcar lines in Norway.
Nexans Solar Technologies is an internal branch of Nexans, created in 2018 as part of the transition plan towards renewable energies, which aims at providing solutions, products, and services to energy producers and investors.
The solar tracker from KEYLIOS® is the first solution entirely conducted by Nexans Solar Technologies, from design to manufacturing. A major contract had already been signed with a prominent developer of photovoltaic projects and an energy supplier providing more than 800 of these solar trackers to be established on four solar facilities located in the southwest of France.
The general contractor Demathieu Bard Construction commissioned Dlubal customer BET Moselle Bois to carry out the timber-and-steel structures' preliminary design. The projects are part of the Marie Curie School located in Fontoy, in the Moselle district.
The recent trend in high-rise construction is clearly dominated by timber as the most ecological and environmentally-friendly material. The project promoter Nexity Resolutely is committed to constructive building solutions with a reduced carbon footprint through various labels and certifications included in its several office and commercial timber projects.
Among these is the Palazzo Meridia, which is currently the tallest CLT office building in France. Dlubal customer CBS-Lifteam was responsible for the planning, supply, and installation of the timber structure.
With the Crossrail railroad line in Great Britain, one of the biggest infrastructure projects of Europe is in progress.

It runs from Reading in Berkshire in the west to Shenfield in Essex in the east, crossing through the center of London.
A branch line runs under the Thames to Woolwich and ends at the recently completed Abbey Wood Station. Its extraordinary timber roof construction has the shape of a huge manta ray which seems to hover above the station.
In September 2017, the Design Building at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst was completed. The $52 million project is one of the largest timber structures in the USA and one of the largest timber-concrete composite projects in the world.
Modern design methods and fabrication techniques of CLT panels allow for easier design and construction of high‑rise timber buildings.
“Îlot bois de Strasbourg” is one of the first CLT building projects in France to exceed 98 ft in height. This building complex, consisting of three high‑rise buildings, provides commercial space on the ground floor and 146 residential units on the upper floors. The entire structure has a total area of 100,104 ft².
A unique timber structure has been located in the heart of London since the end of March 2014. In a period of just six months, the Austrian company WIEHAG built the roof with a total length of 984.2 ft for the Crossrail railroad station situated in the Canary Wharf business district.
In 2013, a very special project was carried out in Pitigala, Sri Lanka. A bridge was designed, calculated, and built by 30 students. They are part of the university group "Engineers Without Borders Karlsruhe Institute of Technology e.V.", which realizes development projects in seven different countries.
