What is tall timber? Towards the formal classification of timber as a material of tall building design [PDF]
, 2018 The emergence of taller buildings using engineered timber as a structural material raises important questions about the language that is used to describe tall buildings. In the absence of formal definitions it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons between buildings using different materials, structural systems and building forms.

Disassembly and Reuse in Tall Timber Buildings: Advancing Circular Construction Practices [PDF]
The construction industry is a major contributor to global CO₂ emissions, necessitating innovative solutions to reduce its environmental footprint. Tall Timber Buildings (TTBs) represent a sustainable alternative to traditional construction methods by leveraging engineered wood products like Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) and Glued-Laminated Timber (GLT).

Wind-induced vibration of tall timber buildings [PDF]
, 2011 In various urban locations around the world, there are examples of multi-storey buildings which have recently been constructed, or are proposed to be constructed using timber as their primary structural material. Such buildings present new challenges in design and analysis.The Eurocode 1 analysis method for along-wind vibration is applied here to a ...

Can timber lower the environmental impact of tall buildings?
, 2019 The building sector is responsible for 30% of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (UNEP, 2009). Recent energy efficiency measures have helped reduce the operational carbon related to the use phase of the building, but a lack of industry attention hinders the reduction of embodied carbon related to the rest of its lifecycle: material extraction,
