Because of its strength and inherent fire resistance, mass timber is a viable option for many applications—including high-rises. Often associated with Type IV buildings, mass timber can be used in any construction type that allows wood structure. The mass timber family of products includes cross-laminated timber (CLT), nail-laminated timber (NLT), dowel-laminated timber (DLT), glue-laminated timber (glulam or GLT), and some types of structural composite lumber (SCL). Learn how to efficiently design and construct these buildings, while creating innovative projects with significant market appeal.
