- Gain insight into the design and manufacturing considerations involved in using glulam in buildings!
Webinar: Understanding Glulam: The structural and architectural capabilities of mass timber
- In this webinar, you’ll gain insight into the design and manufacturing considerations involved in using glulam in buildings. As one of the oldest mass timber products used in Canada, glulam offers exceptional flexibility and can be incorporated into a wide range of building types—particularly where curvature and expressive geometry are key. Presenters will outline design and manufacturing strategies for creating efficient structures, showing how glulam can be used not just as columns and beams, but as the primary structure in today’s innovative buildings—whether architecturally driven or focused on value and efficiency. They will also cover the availability of glulam products across Canada and explain how to maximize the value of the timber used. Practical tips will be shared to help designers and specifiers take full advantage of glulam’s attributes in a cost-efficient way. Understanding Glulam: The structural and architectural capabilities of mass timber Date: May 21st, 2025 Time: 1 PM Eastern Time Duration: 1 hour Learning Outcomes: Participants will learn the design strategies employed when using curvature and geometry in buildings and gain an understanding of what is possible with expressive architecture. Participants will understand the practical constraints of glulam manufacturing, including how to approach the design and specification of glulam members. Participants will learn how different wood species and strength grades are applied in glulam design, and how to use them efficiently for optimal performance. Participants will understand how geometry, fire ratings, and member layups influence the cost-efficiency and design potential of glulam systems.

- This session will explore how to evaluate and integrate different levels of prefabrication based on project goals, site conditions, and logistical constraints.
Webinar: Harnessing Prefabrication: How to Navigate the Design and Construction Process
- Join us for an in-depth discussion on the evolving landscape of modular and prefabricated construction. This session will explore how to evaluate and integrate different levels of prefabrication based on project goals, site conditions, and logistical constraints. Key topics include site planning, design coordination, transportation logistics, and navigating regulatory requirements. We’ll also delve into technical considerations—comparing mass timber and drywall fire ratings, evaluating STC performance, and planning for MEP sub-module integration. The session will conclude with strategies for structural design of modular systems and insights on avoiding common post-construction pitfalls. Grounded in lessons learned from a completed multi-family volumetric modular CLT project, this presentation offers practical tools for design professionals, engineers, and developers looking to optimize prefabrication in their projects. Learning Outcomes: Understand key decision-making criteria for selecting appropriate prefabrication strategies. Apply a framework for integrating prefabrication into project planning and delivery. Recognize technical challenges and solutions in modular design, including fire ratings, acoustics, and MEP coordination. Identify best practices for optimizing structural integration and avoiding post-construction issues.

- Apprenez à gérer la teneur en humidité du bois, la tension des fixations et les nouvelles dispositions de la norme CSA O86:24 dans les environnements de construction dynamiques.
Webinaire : L'effet de la construction sur la durabilité des fixations dans les bois de masse
- L'environnement de la construction est un environnement climatique et d'exposition dynamique qui peut aller du sec au froid et de l'humide au sec. Les matériaux en bois sont dans un état constant de changement de teneur en humidité avec l'environnement qui affecte le changement dimensionnel, l'activité de corrosion, les champignons et la pourriture, ainsi que la tension des vis encastrées. La présentation inclut certaines des nouvelles dispositions de la norme CSA O86:24 relatives aux vis pour bois de masse et les travaux de recherche et développement de Simpson Strong-Tie pour comprendre et atténuer l'HE en fonction de la dureté, de la fabrication et des environnements d'utilisation. Crédits : Les participants recevront une heure de développement professionnel (PDH). Après avoir répondu au questionnaire en ligne, vous pouvez obtenir 0,1 unité de formation continue (UFC). Conditions préalables : Une certaine expérience dans ce domaine est utile. Public visé : Ingénieurs structurels, prescripteurs, architectes, responsables de la construction, entrepreneurs résidentiels et commerciaux, propriétaires et bricoleurs. Nous aurons une séance de questions-réponses en direct à la fin. Objectifs d'apprentissage : Identifier l'importance de la gestion de l'environnement de construction entourant les fixations enfoncées dans le bois à travers des plaques d'acier épaisses. Décrire l'effet de la teneur en humidité du bois sur la tension des fixations filetées enfoncées dans le bois. Expliquer comment prévenir les défaillances des FE dans l'environnement de construction. Résumer les dispositions de la norme CSA O86:24 relatives à la fixation du bois de construction.

- Rejoignez-nous le 8 avril à Delta, en Colombie-Britannique, pour un séminaire sur la conception des immeubles de moyenne hauteur en bois, les exigences sismiques et les dispositions structurelles efficaces.
Séminaire : Conception d'immeubles de moyenne hauteur en bois
- Avec les récents changements de code qui ont entraîné des exigences sismiques plus strictes, il est plus important que jamais de trouver des dispositions structurelles efficaces et performantes. On s'attend à ce que les immeubles résidentiels de moyenne hauteur à ossature en bois léger soient les plus touchés par ces changements. WoodWorks s'associe à Weyerhaeuser et Simpson Strong-Tie pour organiser un événement éducatif attrayant afin d'explorer les stratégies permettant de répondre à ces exigences accrues. Il s'agit d'une occasion unique de participer à une discussion avec des fournisseurs, des éducateurs et des chercheurs sur l'orientation de l'industrie. Faites-vous entendre ! Résultats d'apprentissage : Analyser les développements les plus récents du Code et la façon dont ils affectent la conception latérale des bâtiments de moyenne hauteur à ossature légère en bois. Examiner les dispositions latérales typiques et les stratégies visant à atténuer les forces sismiques accrues. Explorer les différentes méthodes d'analyse et leur effet sur la distribution des forces latérales. Découvrir d'autres conceptions de murs de cisaillement et comment examiner la construction de différentes solutions.
