Cross Laminated Timber Gains Approval

 "Leesburg, Va. – A proposed code change by the American Wood Council (AWC) to expand the use of cross laminated timber through the building code's heavy timber construction classification has been approved by the International Code Council (ICC). The recently approved change will lead the way for new U.S. markets for this emerging wood product in non-residential buildings."


Log andTimber Connection, as distributor of ASSY Self Tapping Structural Wood Screws, is very excited about the Cross Laminated Timber approval. Much research on CLT connections have been conducted with ASSY STS WS and have shown notable improvement in such connections.
