Discover the latest research on sustainable and resilient mass timber hospital construction

Mass timber has been revolutionizing the way we build with its low environmental impact and structural versatility. While its benefits have been well documented in office buildings, residential developments, and education facilities, limited research on the cost, constructability, and performance of mass timber in sensitive healthcare environments has largely impeded the usage of mass timber in hospitals and other acute care settings.

³Ô¹ÏȺÖÚ and ZGF Architects, alongside a team of industry-leading technical consultants, conducted an in-depth study to address the challenges and opportunities of using mass timber in hospital settings. This proof-of-concept report offers insights into overcoming barriers to mass timber construction, implementing solutions, and unlocking the full potential of mass timber in healthcare construction.

What You Will Learn:

  • Key challenges and solutions for mass timber in healthcare settings
  • Strategies for successful implementation in acute care environments
  • Cost and schedule benefits compared to traditional construction
  • Guidance from top experts in architecture, construction, and sustainability
