  • This 2018 EESI Congressional Briefing by Susan Jones of AtelierJones advocates for the use of mass timber to reduce CO2 emissions in construction. It compares timber composite construction (7,467 tons CO2) favorably against steel (13,179 tons) and concrete (14,444 tons) per square foot of floor assembly. The presentation showcases various CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) projects in Washington and Oregon and calls for national action to update building codes (specifically types 4A and 4C) based on real-life fire testing.
