cross laminated timber

In this special DSR episode, earthquake engineer Keri Ryan takes us on a 20-minute walking tour of the NHERI Tallwood structure. See the 10-story mass-timber building under construction — from the outside in! This milestone experiment is taking place at UC San Diego on the world’s largest outdoor shake table. For the first time, researchers are developing and validating a resilient seismic design methodology for tall wood buildings. The work is funded by the National Science Foundation, with support from many industry partners.
