WASHINGTON, Nov. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Next week's symposium from the wood education leaders at WoodWorks will feature what has long represented a gap in mass timber construction — real information on real deals presented by developers of successful mass timber buildings.
Presented over two half days on Nov. 11 and 12, the symposium is a blend of the latest wood building design trends, such as mass timber, tall wood, and approaches like modular and passive house that can increase the value of multi-family buildings. Topics also include the potential of innovative wood buildings to improve forest health and wildfire resiliency, presented by experts in those fields.
