Class Description
Mass timber framing is a construction method using large, engineered wood products for structural elements such as walls, floors, and beams. This system creates strong, dimensionally stable building components that can be prefabricated for faster construction and offer a sustainable alternative to concrete and steel, with benefits including a lower carbon footprint and good fire resistance due to a predictable charring process.
