Imagine a world where our cities are not only more sustainable but also inviting and warm—mass timber construction is paving the way for this vision. In this podcast, we engage with Alejandro Coronado, Technical Advisor at WoodWorks BC to explore the unique benefits of integrating wood into modern architecture. Discover how this dynamic material offers a sustainable alternative to steel and concrete while contributing to lower carbon emissions. Alejandro discusses the mission of the Canadian Wood Council, a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the understanding of wood as a structural material. He shares fascinating insights into the role mass timber plays in addressing environmental challenges while ensuring building efficiency. With its capacity to offer speedy assembly and flexibility in design, mass timber is gaining traction among developers who recognize its potential for tall structures up to 18 stories under recent code revisions.
