* Required Fields

The 2024 International Building Code (IBC) allows for construction of mass timber buildings with larger heights and areas than permitted for wood construction in Types III, IV-HT (heavy timber), and V. This course will provide a comprehensive overview of provisions for construction of mass timber buildings including Type IV-A, IV-B, IV-C and heavy timber used in Type IV-HT construction. Mass timber includes any structural element permitted for use in Type IV construction that meets minimum cross-section dimensions of Type IV Construction. Examples of timber products include cross-laminated timber (CLT), structural composite lumber (SCL), glued laminated timber (glulam), mechanically laminated decking (aka nail-laminated timber, NLT), and large section sawn timbers. Learn about provisions first introduced in the 2015 and 2018 IBC for heavy timber construction as well as an overview of tall mass timber construction per the 2021/2024 IBC and 2021/2024 International Fire Code (IFC). Research and development conducted in support of new tall mass timber Construction Types IV-A, IV-B and IV-C in the 2024 IBC will also be discussed. Topics include heights and areas, fire safety, fire and connection design, construction fire safety, special inspection, energy, acoustics and lateral design provisions.

Course Objectives

  • Recognize the unique fire resistive characteristics of mass timber as it influences the use of wood in building construction.
  • Summarize provisions in the 2015, 2018, 2021 and 2024 IBC related to timber products and Type IV construction.
  • Recognize how new types of construction compare with existing types of construction in the IBC and specify the inherent differences and conservative approaches for the new construction types.
  • Evaluate the new provisions for heights and areas, construction fire safety, fire and connection design and special inspection in tall mass timber construction
