Mass timber is an innovative construction material that uses large, engineered wood products like CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) and glulam beams as structural elements. Unlike traditional wood framing, mass timber is suitable for taller buildings and large spans due to its strength and versatility. It also offers fire resistance, earthquake resilience, and reduces carbon emissions compared to steel or concrete. Mass timber allows for more creative architectural designs while being environmentally sustainable, making it an attractive choice for modern construction.

CLT is made by gluing layers of wood with alternating grain directions, creating strong, load-bearing panels.

Glulam beams are made by gluing different types of wood layered with parallel grains in different sizes. They are used for structural applications such as beams for large spans – offering both strength and design versatility
