Cross Laminated Timber
Cross laminated timber construction techniques, materials, and architectural applications in contemporary building design.
Cross laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product made from layers of solid-sawn lumber stacked and glued perpendicular to one another. It offers structural efficiency, sustainability, and design flexibility for mid-rise and tall buildings while reducing construction timelines compared to conventional methods.The community explores CLT through residential and institutional projects, from apartment blocks and waterfront landmarks to experimental timber shells and specialized facilities. Work ranges from conventional construction approaches to innovative self-assembling systems and competence centers dedicated to timber innovation.
