Buy the paper copy - Volume IBuy the paper copy - Volume II DOWNLOAD THE FREE PDF The benefits of using solid wood products and structural elements in construction are increasingly recognized in Canada and elsewhere. To support a larger use of CLT, the 2019 Edition of the CLT Handbook has been completely revised and improved based on new research performed by FPInnovations and partners to reflect changes made since the 2011 edition in recent Canadian codes and standards, including new guidance recently implemented in the CSA O86:19 standard. The handbook is a must-have for every professional interested in building with CLT in Canada and beyond In-depth, multi-disciplinary and peer-reviewed information on all performance attributes of CLT construction; Includes the new CLT provisions in the Canadian Standards Association’s Standard in Engineering Design in Wood; NEW! An extra chapter provides a design prototype of an eight-storey mass-timber building.

This technique, far from being new, could prove to be a cost-competitive solution for floors with longer-span since the mechanical properties of the two materials act in complementarity. This guide, which contains numerous illustrations and formulas to help users better plan their projects, addresses many aspects of the design of timber-concrete composite floors, for example shear connection systems, ultimate limit state design, vibration and fire resistance of floors, and much more.
