CLT (Cross laminated timber)
Characteristics
Dimensions
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an innovative engineered wood product consisting of layers of timber boards stacked perpendicular to each other and bonded together with structural adhesives. The manufacturing process involves precision cutting of timber boards to size, which are then stacked and glued in alternating layers. This construction method provides CLT panels with excellent strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability. CLT is widely used in construction for a variety of applications, including walls, floors, roofs, and even entire buildings. Its prefabricated nature allows for efficient and rapid construction on-site, reducing both construction time and labor costs. Additionally, CLT is valued for its sustainability, as it utilizes fast-growing, renewable wood resources and can sequester carbon dioxide.
