Hey this seems to be true for smaller mass timber residential buildings (especially post n plate systems) but when we start looking at taller structures which require encapsulation or are supported by post and beam gravity systems doesn't this floor to ceiling height requirement start increasing? Also, with residential there is often a push to hide wiring and hvac.What are good solutons to reduce floor to ceiling heights when you start getting above 6 ST. I saw Ascent floor to ceiling heights were like 11+/- ft.

Probably a dumb questions; wouldn't adding concrete to a wood slab compromise the wood as it introduces moisture from the concrete into the wood? Like I said, probably a dumb questions, but I would think moisture would be the enemy of any mass timber structural unit.

Glass walled conference room, 1-hr wall. Use window sprinklers that are listed for this application. NB: There are a number of details that are required of both the glass and spk designer. In no case are intermediate horizontal mullions allowed. This appears to be biggest project risk. Someone tries to ‘be reasonable’ and save money. If you don’t know what you’re talking about, you aren’t being reasonable. You’re guessing. Project management will need to ride hard on this issue. You already have a wet spk system installed. Use it. Cheaper than rated glass.

Would NLT be a possible replacement in residential construction for a monolithic slab on grade? If the entire slab is inside the building envelope insulated underneath with the vapor barrier between the insulation and the NLT slab. Would there still be far too much expansion in the slab to make this suitable?

I’m currently conducting my architectural thesis on mass timber construction, and your videos have been incredibly helpful in guiding me through the structural aspects of my project. Thank you for that! If possible, could you recommend any books or materials that i can use my research? I would greatly appreciate it!

very nice - watching all yr vids tnx from the netherlands!

All good until it gets wet and blows up like MDF.

Thank you @MassTimberHowTos!

Hi if i was to make a bed frame what wood would be the cheapest? Can i use c16 treated 3x2 or can i use cls this is for frame only to fit 8x5 mattress with storage underneath it will be indoor which wood would best hold weight. Thanks

Is the double beam system also an option when combined with concrete columns?

What is the purpose of the post fire multiplier?

great !

Excellent work and beautiful use of this natural product.

I wish my teachers would have shown me this channel at the beginning of my project instead of more than half way through

I am from South Africa, if you don't mind please send me your email address. I have a few questions on the design.

Little bit late to the party but what about combining the two concepts? Would it be possible to integrate a one-way spanning CLT panel between the glulam beams? Cant seem to find any references but dont know why, it seems to combine both the benefits of having a small construction height together with a large span. I can imagine using notched CLT for partially integrated floors or using a lot of screws or steel plates to suspend the CLT slab between the glulam beams.

Less talk and more show. Show us what it looks like.

I INVENTED THIS

Longtime lurker, thanks for uploading these!

I'm excited right now. I like going through turnstiles. 🦗

Great content 🎉thank you for sharing

the music is too loud and unnecessary

Have not understood much. But still on point, no fuss, clean nice presentation. Great job.

Scary eyes!

Key insights: 🏗 Mass Timber's versatility allows it to act as the structure, expose architectural finish, and provide inherent fire resistance, making it a popular choice for construction projects. 🌳 Mass Timber is chosen for its aesthetics, speed of construction, and sustainability, making it a popular choice over other structural materials. 🏗 Using a hybrid approach of mass timber and another material creates complexity in procurement, coordination, and logistics, requiring careful planning and coordination. 🔥 Mass Timber's exposed finish and fire resistance rating make it unique but also requires additional care and protection on site. 🏢 Using a hybrid Mass Timber plus other materials can provide benefits in terms of span-to-depth ratios, making it a suitable solution for spanning long distances in office scenarios. 🏗 Understanding the differences in material tolerances and movements is critical when working with hybrid mass timber, as it requires creating details that accommodate the differential tolerance between materials. 🔥 On-site welding is often minimized or eliminated in structural steel and Mass Timber projects to avoid fire hazards and potential damage to the adjacent Mass Timber panels. 🌲 Woodwork is a free resource available to answer any questions about hybrid Mass Timber structural systems, providing support and guidance for projects in this field. TLDR: Hybrid mass timber structural systems offer a versatile and sustainable solution for construction projects, but careful planning and coordination are required to address the complexities and differences in material tolerances. 1. 00:00 🌲 Mass timber's versatility as both structure and finish, combined with other materials, can effectively enhance construction projects, but understanding its behaviour and interaction with other materials is crucial in determining its value compared to traditional options. 1.1 Mass Timber's versatility allows it to serve as both the structure and architectural finish, and when combined with other materials like steel and concrete, it can be effectively incorporated into construction projects. 1.2 Understanding how hybrid structures of mass timber and other building materials behave and interact is important in order to determine the value that mass timber can bring to projects compared to traditional materials like steel or concrete. 2. 02:09 🌲 Mass Timber offers benefits such as aesthetics, faster construction, sustainability, and suitability for sites with poor soils due to its warm look, time savings, lower weight, and environmental friendliness. 3. 02:42 🌲 Using a hybrid approach of mass timber and other materials in construction can reduce the need for soil remediation, but it also adds complexity in terms of procurement, coordination, and logistics. 4. 03:43 💡 Mass timber requires careful handling and protection from moisture due to its dual role as both a structural and exposed finish material. 5. 04:30 🌲 Using a hybrid Mass Timber system with other materials like structural steel beams and columns can provide benefits such as better span-to-depth ratios, allowing for longer distances and more creative options like fixed connections and cantilevers. 6. 05:43 🌲 Understanding the differences in material tolerances and movements is crucial when creating connections between structural building materials with tight tolerances and other materials, in order to accommodate differential tolerance and material movements on site. 7. 06:24 🌲 Mass Timber is not affected by moisture or temperature fluctuations, so it is important to understand and detail the connections between different materials to accommodate any potential differential movements. 8. 07:22 🌲 Having the same installer for both mass timber and other structural materials is beneficial for coordination and scheduling, maximizing installation speed, and reaching out to Woodworks for free resources. 8.1 Having the same installer for both the mass timber and other structural materials is beneficial for coordination and scheduling, as it allows for a synchronized and flawless installation process. 8.2 Maximize the installation speed of mass Timber construction by ensuring a seamless transition between materials, and if you have any questions, reach out to Woodworks for free resources.

Fascinating topic but your use of an imposing audio assault to the senses qualifies you for the s**tcan. I'll research this topic elsewhere.

Such good video

i would really like to hear about mass timber for use in single family homes. Timber framed homes are competitively price from reduced labor on site costs. Does mass timber have the same advantage?

How tall is this ? In meters please. Thanks

What fire protection is used?.. how are the termites prevented?. What about when it rains

Can you put subtitles in spanish?

With this construction system always needs vigas/pilares or just can put the panels ? Lo que quiero preguntar es si para construir en este sistema varios niveles, siempre necesito poner vigas y pilares de madera + los paneles o puede sostenerse solo con los paneles? gracias 🤔

Good day, would you please recommend a textbook that is more technical? I am looking for a textbook that would help me understand the structural engineering side of things, how to design different elements, and how to design connections. Thank you

Thanks❤

What a great channel! This is the kind of content the algorithm should be promoting

Hi there, can I ask, are the sources of water leakage in mass timber buildings different than other type of buildings, what make it different?

Thank you for your Well-done & insightful videos. I will take issue with the opening statement which highlights 'doing more with less'. This kind of construction is wonderful, but when we start thinking of it (or anything else) as a way to 'do things on the cheap' (especially the less-skilled & sincere designers/builders), we start a slippery slope from Architecture & Structure into buildings that end up becoming exercises in slapping on veneers & appliques OK, I relinquish the Soap-Box.

Good metric.

Thanks for the video. Couple of questions, 1) what are/where can I find the deflection limits in a fire condition? 2) can you explain why there is different charring rate in CLT for different lamination thicknesses? My understanding is that this is captured delamination of CLT panels but has since been resolved in PRG 320 2019 (and the types of adhesive permitted). Is the fact that NDS 2018 didn't have this resolved ... but may be captured in the next NDS revision?

Really helpful! Thanks. I'll be researching these topics.

This is such an excellent summary thank you!

Just discovered you, while doing some research into mass and engineered timber products. I've subscribed!

Big up, keep em coming

Thank you! Quick but very complete and detailed explanation of both systems. I just discovered mass timber construction and this was very helpful for me to understand it. Regards from Argentina.

That’s cool
