Our Mass Timber Book is Now Available! • Building Fundamentals
After two years of intensive work, my co-author, Peggi Clouston, and I are thrilled to announce that our new book "Mass Timber - Materials, Design, and Construction" is officially out! We just received our author copies (as you can see on the right), and seeing the final product in person is incredibly rewarding.
Robert J. Bell PhotographyWoodWorks put together a 2025 roundup of technical resources (codes, enclosure detailing, case studies). Great background reading for photographers working with architects/builders.

Building Successfully with Wood: A 2025 Resource Roundup - WoodWorks | Wood Products Council
From code strategies and enclosure detailing to case studies and in-depth technical guides, these resources reflect WoodWorks’ ongoing commitment to supporting AEC+Ds at every stage of a wood project.

It's a #masstimber campus.
Did not see straw and hemp yet and addition of new stories to existing buildings though, so there is room for improvement.

This Housing Project for Noto Earthquake Refugees, Constructed Without Any Nails or Adhesives, Just Won Japan's Most-Prestigious Design Award
On New Year’s Day 2024, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck Ishikawa Prefecture’s Noto Peninsula. The death toll reached 245 and 76,144 housing units were damaged. Many residents were displaced amid the harsh winter cold, with approximately 15,000 seeking refuge. Architect Shigeru Ban (previously)

Wanted: deep technical expert on mass timber in all its permutations. Why? 🎙Redefining Energy - Tech nerdcast. I've spent a bunch of time over the past months digging into mass timber, cross laminated timber and the like as a broad spectrum nerd. I identified it as a major wedge in reinforced concrete replacement as part of my deep dive into cement decarbonization last year, but hadn't gone deep and broad on it until earlier this year. Now I have, through a series of articles which included responding to comments and challenges in various places. This has culminated in a 73 page white paper on the subject, with a Canadian focus given its leading role in the space, alignment with federal housing policy and industrial opportunity. Report PDF link: https://lnkd.in/dnf2deWr Apple Redefining Energy - Tech link: https://lnkd.in/gUXhiwQD Spotify Redefining Energy - Tech link: https://lnkd.in/gvqvd4N4 I have a rather contrarian podcast. I spend 90 minutes talking to deep experts on decarbonization subjects where I have done sufficient research to have an interesting conversation on a subject that's important from a climate lever perspective, fiscally viable and interesting to me. Then I break it up into a couple of very lightly edited episodes. Long form nerdcasts, no murders (except of terrible tech ideas). Know a completely engaged technical expert in the field who might want to have an interesting 90 minute convo with someone who knows enough to be dangerous about her or his field? Send them my way. Spread the net. Thanks.
Brent ToderianThere were already SO MANY REASONS for cities to get big into Mass Timber building construction. For Canadian cities, and for allies of Canada, Trump starting an illegal trade war with Canada gave us another really BIG reason — Canadian wood helping the Canadian economy. #MassTimber
