Mass Timber Buildings

Mass timber buildings are structures made primarily from large, solid wood components such as beams, panels, and columns. Unlike traditional framing with many small pieces, mass timber uses engineered wood products like cross-laminated timber (CLT) that are durable, strong, and can be prefabricated for efficient construction. These buildings are environmentally friendly, capturing carbon and reducing reliance on concrete and steel. They offer aesthetic warmth, excellent insulation, and excellent fire performance when properly designed. Mass timber is increasingly chosen for commercial, residential, and institutional projects, blending sustainability with modern architectural versatility and strength.
