Mass Timber<\/strong><\/p>\n

Description:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Looking for strategies to reduce the embodied carbon in your new buildings? Michigan has adopted the 2021
\nInternational Building Code mass timber provisions which expands the use of wood construction from 6 to 18 stories. Mass timber structural systems offer a high probability of a lower embodied carbon footprint. This webinar explores the feasibility, benefits and current implementation of mass timber through the lens of a developer, manufacturer, and architect. Projects in the Midwest, detailing lessons learned from design, coordination, and construction will be highlighted including INTRO in Cleveland.<\/p>\n
