Evaluating the Evolution from First to Second Generation Mass Timber Projects to Inform Industry Developments
Time: 10:30 am
day: Conf Day 1 Track 1 AM
Details:
- Understanding how dynamics of early tall mass timber projects have influenced the design and construction approaches of subsequent projects: How can lessons learned also be transposed to other novel project types?
- Examining the complexities and demands of connection design in taller mass timber buildings, particularly regarding fire performance and securing code approval
- Exploring regulatory and jurisdictional considerations for increasing height in mass timber buildings without covering the timber to add additional fire proofing
