A HYBRID APPROACH TO GREEN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION USING MASS TIMBER
2023India harbours the world's largest population and the most extensive construction sector globally, where the utilization of engineered wood products in building construction remains minimal. The advantages of incorporating timber into tall and commercial constructions are indisputable, contributing to the reduction of the carbon footprint, shortened ...

The sound insulation performance of mass timber building elements
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018Mass timber constructions have been gaining popularity in Canada since provincial building codes were changed to allow for taller buildings of mass timber elements. Common mass timber elements include cross-laminated timber, nail-laminated timber, dowel-laminated timber, and glued laminated timber.

Mass timber considerations for K-12 school buildings
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of AmericaThis presentation will review two case studies where mass timber construction was used in K-12 education facilities. The first case is a high school technical education building with hybrid mass and steel timber construction, with acoustical challenges of very large and high bay spaces for automotive training and building trades training.

World Conference on Timber Engineering 2025
Exposure to moisture can occur either during building construction (heavy rain/flash flooding) or in-service (condensation/plumbing leaks). Mass timber products such as cross-laminated timber (CLT) have higher capacity to absorb and store moisture than other timber products.
