Mass Timber Market Updates - July 2021 - Week Twentysix

Happy Fourth of July to all our United States listeners. In the
podcast this week. Sweden's largest wooden parking garage. Will
there be room for just over 600 cars (18,000m2). The parking
garage has high sustainability ambitions and a role model for
future projects. As part of westbank’s sweeping campus
transformation of san jose, james k.m. cheng architects unveils
its‘orchard’ residences. Together with the residential project,
the ‘orchard’ will span two distinct buildings including an
accompanying workspace designed by WRNS studio. The new Potter
Building will also be the first education building constructed
using a CLT floor structure, in Queensland.  The Boronia
Road using XLam CLT panel installation was undertaken in 22 hours
over 3 days. Using CLTP's products, Cusp will operate essentially
as the marketing branch of the organisation. To kick things off,
they're highlighting their "world-first" hardwood Cross Laminated
Timber for the structural timber market. Cusp CEO Chris
Skeels-Piggins described the move as an "innovation" for the
timber industry. The Softwood Lumber Board (SLB) recently
published its 2021 Q1 Report, which recaps the SLB’s progress in
growing incremental demand for the softwood lumber industry and
demonstrates how the SLB and its funded programs—the American
Wood Council (AWC), Think Wood, and WoodWorks—are aggressively
working to communicate and to amplify wood’s environmental
benefits with science and verified research. On behalf of Paul
Kremer and the entire team at the Mass Timber Construction
Journal we would like to thank all of our followers on this
amazing achievement. Keep subscribing, listening and reading. We
love bringing all the mass timber construction news to you!
