Mass timber, an engineered wood product that can be used in the construction of mid-rise and high-rise buildings, is growing in popularity for developers. In this webinar, Forest Products Laboratory researchers discuss how small-diameter trees can be used in making mass timber and describe the latest research on the effects of fire, moisture, and termites on mass timber durability.
