About the event
Due to the lightweight capacity and the advancement of the post-processed technology of both CLT and Mass Timber, when combined with BIM and manufacturing technologies, we now have the ability to adapt and create new building systems. These include 2D structural/load bearing thru-wall, roof components and 3D Volumetric systems. In addition, mass timber can be designed to take advantage of hybrid technology with both steel and concrete to create ultra-effi cient building solutions that has pure economic value.
