What is Mass Timber? Mass timber is a category of framing styles typically characterized by the use of large solid wood panels for wall, floor, and roof construction.

Products in the mass timber family include: Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) CLT consists of layers of dimension lumber (typically three, five, or seven) oriented at right angles to one another and then glued to form structural panels with exceptional strength, dimensional stability, and rigidity.
Rough Sawn And Full-Dimensional Lumber. Depending on a variety of factors including lumber type, lumberyards will cut timber to various sizes and leave them out in the air to dry. Once it dries, the lumber will not all be the same uniformed size, even if they are close. This is called rough-sawn lumber. It might still contain up to 20 percent water. If this is the case, the boards will still be close to the dimensions that it had when it was cut. This is why it is called full-dimensional lumber. An air-dried two-by-four still measures very close to two inches by four inches.
