FAQs About Mass Timber Trusses

How are mass timber trusses designed? 

Mass timber trusses are constructed using large, solid engineered wood panels and beams. The panels are made from layers of cross-laminated or glue- laminated timber that is glued together for strength and durability.


What is the performance and safety level of mass timber? 

Mass timber trusses are fire-resistant and can also be treated to be resistant to moisture, insects, and UV damage. They are designed to withstand high winds and seismic activity, with the structural integrity of steel beams or concrete. Mass timber trusses also have superior dimensional stability.


What are common challenges faced by mass timber? 
In Chicago, the most common challenges to mass timber stability and longevity are fire, water damage, pest infestations, and wind damage.


How do I know if my property needs mass timber repair?

Schedule annual property inspections to uncover early warning signs of damage. Look for warped wood, cracks, mold, stains, sawdust or tunneling, cracking, buckling, or shifting. Check for wood that is soft or spongy, or has a musty odor.
