This 5-day workshop will cover Heavy and Mass Timber Construction
materials, job planning, tools, and installation best practices used. Mass
Timber is a new category of large, engineered wood columns, beams, and panels that
provide exceptional strength, stability, and fire resistance. The reading of
structural and shop drawings, common connections for columns, beams, and
panels, field modifications, and moisture management products will be discussed
and performed. Using the structural and shop drawings provided, participants
will perform layout, rigging, and installation of a full-scale cross-laminated
timber (CLT) and Glulam mass timber structure, which includes connections and
hardware from various manufacturers. Several material protection strategies
will be discussed and performed during the installation. Field modifications
and moisture management product installations will be performed on smaller
individual mockups.
