#MassTimber
Masonry does not mean 🧱.

There 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
Mass Timber is the way, we’re working on several and it’s proving to be beneficial; faster, durable, beautiful and boosts Canadian manufacturing and talent. What’s not to love? 1/
My review of Toronto’s new Mass timber tower: a quiet triumph.

Can we get some tallish mass timber buildings here in San Francisco. Like now. #housing #masstimber #BayArea #desireabledensity

You can buy huge rammed earth elements from home now and it is wild.

Always remember,
construction could be on the forefront of decarbonisation, relieving the climate through carbon storage, contribute to well-being through healthy climate adapted environments with growth where it's due...

Floor in a multi family #strawhouse
Once the walls have dried, flooring is installed.
Upper floor consists of masstimber, lime gravel, wood fiber, coconut fiber, battens, solid wood boards.
Residents rate the sound insulation on the floor slabs as very good. #biobased #howtostrawablebuilding

Imagine saving the building sector, which is not allowed to emit so much greenhouse gas in the climate crisis anymore, would be so easy.
A quick to build masstimber structure + straw in a locally made box + roofing tiles = affordable, ultra climate resilient and affordable, social housing.

Tamedia office building in Zurich by Shigeru Ban.

Very impressive and innovative timber frame skeleton held together without metal fixings.

First sci-fi TV show / movie with a positive non-fig-leaf biobased material culture in the future is Star Trek Starfleet Academy.
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.
The real good urbanism. Going back to a future with -normal- non-scifi materials. Mass timber addition #Aufstockung with straw and earth modules as wall infill, lime plaster outside.

It's 'cemwood': calcium silicate coated wood chips. See cemwood.de They are a very resilient, insulating, leveling fill. Especially for use under floors. If we are on the conscious route we will see this everywhere in the #renovationwave. (Where is it?)

How was it possible to build a communal straw house? Or retrofit a cored Plattenbau with masstimber? (right, bauhaus uni) The most sustainable building technologies. Even though Germany is so unambitious, there are ways! On tour in federal states, a different one every day. It's hard but important.

Redefining luxury: 75 ft tall, mass-timber frame, Passive House goal — at “Timberburg” we’re excited to push boundaries with Builtd + KSK. At ZH Architects we call this climate-resilient, high-performance living. 🪵⚡️

ever wondered how they close gaps during installation to ensure mass timber elements are aligned and connections are tight?

Recently, I visited UNBC’s Wood Innovation and Design Centre. The incredible research around #wood engineering & #masstimber here by Dr. Jianhui Zhou & others will advance our options for more #sustainable construction, while also leading to #innovation in our #forestry sector. Thanks for the tour!

Mass timber is a real opportunity for BC forestry.

It responds to a need - housing. And it has interest from across the globe.

We have mass timber innovators here in BC. In Castelgar, Kalesnikoff opened a first of its kind mass timber facility.
