Carbon / Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) Workshop A dynamic day of learning about impacts of materials and systems in our built environment As building performance and energy efficiency increases for new buildings, greater awareness is being paid to the life cycle impacts of the materials and systems which comprise the building structure. Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) has been recognized in
Timber has become the material of choice for sustainably-minded designers due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, speed of construction, and positive environmental performance. This seminar will present a variety of mass timber products such as cross-laminated timber (CLT), glue-laminated timber (glulam), nail-laminated timber (NLT) and other engineered and composite systems. The attendees are expected to learn: Overview of mass timber
