Course description: AEC Daily: Mass Timber: How to Start a Project in the Right Direction
The trend toward building with mass timber across the US and beyond is accelerating, requiring design professionals to understand the why, when, and how of designing a mass timber structure. The industry is dynamic and evolving along with the building codes that dictate mass timber system requirements and limits. This course identifies the considerations a designer should review before starting a mass timber project, including feasibility, trade partnering, material selection, building codes, logistics, and their overall impact on creating a successful mass timber project.
Describe how mass timber building materials are durable and sustainable and have a low carbon footprint.
Discuss how prefabricated mass timber posts, beams, and panels reduce construction waste and their light weight decreases transportation costs compared to concrete, reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Explain which 2021 International Building Code® building types are approved for mass timber construction and identify the required fire code regulations for each type.
Summarize the main design considerations when selecting mass timber construction, including scheduling and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) logistics.
