Where is CLT Going? And where has it come from?
As Cross Laminated Timber begins to go global, with production rapidly increasing and new factories opening all over the planet, Unstructured Extra 9 looks at CLT’s first European chapter, in depth and in detail.
There's a special feature focus on CLT pioneers and Stirling Award winners, London’s dRMM, alongside WaughThistleton and Hackney, North London’s surprise CLT world centre.
Europe-wide features include SauerbrauchHutton’s brand new Hamburg ‘Woodie’ student housing, Nordic experimenters Helen & Hard, brickcentric Holland’s CLT timber undercurrents, and Lausanne’s I-Bois latest folded plate CLT, Vidy Theatre. We head to the source of the revolution, South East Austria. Gerhard Schickhofer whose Graz University research helped kick-start CLT is interviewed, and we report from the country’s Styrian forests and factories.
Andrew Lawrence, Arup’s timber main man writes on where he believes CLT is going, our Further section profiles the rise of Tall Timber. We explore less noticed aspects of this timber shake down: Arts & Crafts & CLT, a folded plate monocoque CLT chapel outside Stroud and, in Wales, the future of Brettstapel.
With CLT in the midst of transiting from a primarily European to a Global sustainable material, Unstructured Extra 9 provides an unparalleled, up to the minute, overview of where it’s at, and where it’s going.
