How-to resource for CLT

Cross-laminated timber has been used in many projects in British Columbia. The province is home to a growing number of CLT suppliers whose products are being used across North America.

The Canadian CLT handbook is the essential how-to resource for Canadian building professionals interested in construction and design using cross-laminated timber (CLT). The handbook covers multi-disciplinary, peer-reviewed information on all aspects of CLT construction.
