Biological durability of cross laminated timber connections. [PDF]
Biological durability remains an understudied area of mass timber construction, despite expert warnings on potential moisture and decay issues that may affect building performance. In an effort to bridge the knowledge gap, this article presents experimental data on the performance of fungal-decayed cross laminated timber (CLT) connection assemblies.

Sustainable Development Advantages of Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) and Cross-Laminated Bamboo and Timber (CLBT). [PDF]
As an innovative advancement beyond cross-laminated timber (CLT), cross-laminated bamboo and timber (CLBT) combines sustainability with enhanced structural performance. This review critically assesses the current state of CLBT research, focusing on its failure mechanisms, mechanical properties, and predictive theoretical models.
