Effects of wetting events on mass timber surface microbial communities and VOC emissions: implications for building operation and occupant well-being

Frontiers in Microbiomes
IntroductionHumans have used wood as a construction material throughout history. Currently, mass timber products, such as cross-laminated timber (CLT), are becoming more popular as a structural material, since they are renewable and have a lower carbon ...

Proposing new adhesive-free timber edge connections for cross-laminated timber panels: A step toward sustainable construction

Case Studies in Construction Materials
The use of timber as a building material is becoming increasingly popular thanks to its superior environmental performance compared with concrete and steel. However, timber structures rely on solid connections to improve their weak expansibility.
