Topic: Mass Timber Structural Design: Engineering Modern Timber Structures (1.0 PDH)

Presenter: Mark Bartlett, PE.

Abstract:

This presentation will provide a detailed look at the structural design processes associated with a variety of mass timber products, including glued-laminated timber (glulam), cross-laminated timber (CLT), and nail-laminated timber (NLT). Applications for the use of these products in gravity force-resisting systems under modern building codes will be discussed. Other technical topics will include and an introduction to lateral systems common in mass timber buildings, mass timber floor vibration criteria, and connection options. Mass timber framing components are often left exposed to act as a finish while taking advantage of their aesthetics. As such, they are often required to provide a fire-resistance rating demonstrating their ability to maintain structural integrity in the event of a fire. This session will also discuss structural design of mass timber elements under fire conditions.
