Wednesday, May 29th, 11:45 AM - 1:00 PM
This presentation will demonstrate the sustainable and "green" advantages of wood used as a structural building material by looking at topics such as managed forests, carbon sequestration, life cycle analysis and the carbon cycle. This presentation provides an introduction to Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) - a solid wood structural product used in the walls, floors and roofs of buildings. Topics of discussion will include design issues and specific examples of buildings constructed of CLT or Cross Laminated Timber.
