Pierre Landel
Forskare/Researcher

With wood, you not only build nice decks and huts but also long bridges, tall towers and fine architecture for many generations. With a background as a designer and builder, Pierre Landel helps the timber construction industry to reach the next step. At Linnaeus University, he works on the new challenges for much taller timber buildings: wind-induced vibrations and comfort. His PhD project is about testing and modeling the dynamic properties of timber structures.
In 2004 he graduated from the French Arts et Métiers (M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering), in 2005 he specialized at CHEC in Paris in the design of large timber structures. Since then, he has worked with mass timber technology at AB Fristad Bygg until 2014 and after that, he started as a researcher and project manager at RISE in Borås. In June 2022, he received a Degree of Licentiate in Building Technology from Linnaeus University.
