Timber structure was a new course jointly set by our university and the University of British Columbia (UBC) of Canada. The teaching plan was jointly developed. Relying on Canadian teachers and experts of Canada Wood, the bilingual teaching was practiced with the textbook which was mainly written in Chinese and some related English literatures were integrated. The seminar teaching mode was explored by dividing students into groups to put forward the ideas, the method and technical route to solve the research subject.
