In this episode of Stirring the Pot, we’re talking with BRANZ General Manager of Research, Chris Litten.

Tasked with challenging Aotearoa New Zealand to create a building system that delivers better outcomes for all, Chris and his team oversee a range of research projects in environment and zero-carbon, fire, healthy homes, materials, and structural and seismic engineering to make that a reality.

Together we delve into the mahi that BRANZ does, how their research focuses are chosen, opportunities the steel industry has to collaborate with them, and what is on the horizon.
