Needs for total fire engineering of mass timber buildings

, 2016
Fire safety is widely perceived as a barrier to implementation of tall timber buildings, particularly for engineered mass timber buildings with significant areas of exposed timber and timber structural framing. This negative perception is exacerbated by a lack of scientific data or experimental evidence on a range of potentially important issues that ...

Mass Timber and the Disruption of the Building Sector

Over the past decade, the resurgence of engineered wood products, such as cross-laminated timber for buildings, has inspired a change in the way we build. Driven by an effort of the construction sector to become more sustainable and have lower carbon impacts, cross-laminated timber presented an opportunity to try to build better.
