SUMMARY:Mass Timber in Modern Schools + Bristol Agricultural High School Tour
DESCRIPTION:Regional In-Person Seminar + Tour (Dighton\, MA)\n\n\nThis course examines the growing use of mass timber in K-12 school design\, with a focus on the key drivers influencing its adoption\, including speed of construction\, sustainability\, cost-efficiency\, and code compliance. Attendees will gain insight into the national school construction market\, understand how International Building Code (IBC) provisions support the use of mass timber in Types III\, IV\, and V construction\, and compare costs and building configurations across material systems. Additional topics include fire performance and code allowances\, acoustic and durability considerations\, structural design strategies for long spans in gymnasiums and cafeterias\, as well as practical tips for space planning and integration. The session concludes with case studies illustrating the successful implementation of mass timber in school projects across the country. \nFollowing the presentation and lunch\, attendees will tour the Student Commons\, a 15\,656-square-foot expansion and renovation of the Bristol County Agricultural High School. This two-story mass timber building features a combination of glued-laminated timber beams and columns (glulam) and floor and roof panels (GLT)\, a hybrid lateral system consisting of steel braces and light-frame wood shear/bearing walls\, and wood I-joists. Designers utilized exposed mass timber to connect students to the local ecology and educate them on low-carbon alternatives to typical construction methods. Members of the project team will lead the tour\, sharing insights into the design\, engineering\, and construction process and answering attendees’ questions. \n  \nAgenda: \n10:30am – Registration Opens \n11:00am – Seminar \n12:00pm – Lunch \n12:30pm – Tour \n  \nCredits: Attendees can earn 1.0 AIA/CES HSW LU\, 1.0 PDH credit or 0.10 ICC credit for the seminar + 1.0 AIA/CES HSW LU\, 1.0 PDH credit or 0.10 ICC credit for the tour. \n  \nSpeaker: \n\n\n  \nPatrick Duffy\, PE | WoodWorks \nPatrick is a licensed Professional Engineer in Maine.

SUMMARY:Moisture Control and Durability in Hybrid Light-Frame Panelized Roof Systems
DESCRIPTION:National Online Seminar\nHybrid light-frame panelized roof systems are widely used throughout the U.S. in large industrial warehouses and distribution centers for their economy\, constructability\, and repeatability—especially when paired with panelized construction. However\, long-term performance depends on a clear understanding of the complete roof assembly and its interaction with climate-specific moisture conditions. \nThis webinar provides a building science–based overview of hybrid light-frame panelized roof assemblies\, clarifying how and where moisture accumulation and condensation can occur\, and why long-term performance depends on enclosure design rather than material choice alone. Participants will examine detailing and control-layer strategies that support effective drying\, prevent mold growth\, and protect indoor environmental quality. Through real-world case studies\, the session offers actionable approaches that support code compliance\, occupant health\, and long-term durability across multiple climate zones. \n  \nCredits: Attendees can earn 1.5 AIA/CES HSW LU\, 1.5 PDH credit or 0.15 ICC credit \n  \nBonus content: Attendees are invited to stay on after the webinar for a non-accredited bonus session featuring WoodWorks Partner RedBuilt for a manufacturer Q&A. \n\n\nSpeakers:\n\n\n\n  \nColin Shane\, M.Eng.\, P.Eng. P.E.\, Principal\, Building Science Specialist\, Regional Director\, US West | RDH Building Science Inc. \nColin is a Professional Engineer in the United States and Canada and leads RDH’s team in the Western United States. Colin has a broad knowledge of building construction and applies building science principles to analyze and design durable\, energy-efficient building enclosures. He shares his experience by regularly speaking about topics related to building science and building enclosure engineering at events across the United States and contributes to industry organizations with the aim of making buildings better.  \n\n\n\n \nMark Curry\, Principal | West Coast Roof Consulting \nMark Curry is Principal at Westcoast Roof Consulting\, a full-service roofing and waterproofing consulting firm with more than 200 years of combined industry experience. In his role\, Mark provides independent\, technically sound guidance to building owners\, property managers\, and developers across all phases of roofing and waterproofing projects. Known for delivering objective evaluations\, clear specifications\, and practical solutions that support informed decision-making and successful project outcomes.  \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the mechanisms of moisture transport (air leakage\, vapor diffusion\, and bulk water) in hybrid light-frame panelized roof assemblies and their impact on condensation risk and indoor environmental quality.\nDifferentiate material misconceptions from system-level causes of moisture failures\, demonstrating why trapped moisture is not a wood-specific issue.\nAssess regional climate considerations when designing hybrid panelized roof assemblies\, including vapor control\, insulation placement\, and drying potential in cold\, mixed\, hot-humid\, and marine climates.\nApply transferable design strategies that enable hybrid light-frame panelized roof systems to perform reliably across diverse U.S. regions\, supporting broader adoption beyond traditional West Coast markets.\n\n  \nOnline Attendees: \n\nWoodWorks will send each attendee a certificate of completion within 2 weeks via email.\nPlease note that to receive a certificate\, attendees must stay for the duration of the event.\n\n  \nFor questions or additional information\, please contact: \nMary Schramka | mary.schramka@woodworks.org | 708.204.9578 \n  \nImage: Panelized Structures

SUMMARY:Realizing Mass Timber’s Benefits: Key Design Decisions and Carbon Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Regional Online Seminar (OR\, ID-South\, HI)\n\n\nMass timber is a unique\, non-commodity building material and\, to lay the groundwork for success\, certain critical decisions must be made as early as possible. These decisions can have a big impact on cost\, and can either increase or limit the opportunities available later in design. This presentation will examine early project decisions and design steps\, focusing on how to optimize projects for mass timber to avoid price premiums. Topics will include construction types\, fire ratings\, column grids and beam/panel spans\, acoustics\, and MEP integration. Completed mass timber projects will be presented to illustrate the variety of viable options when navigating these key decisions. \nAnother important topic in mass timber building design is understanding how building material choice contributes to carbon impact. As more building designers utilize life cycle assessment (LCA) to compare the environmental performance of material and design alternatives\, questions arise about how wood products and buildings should be analyzed. Most designers recognize the carbon-storing capability of wood but are unsure how to include it in their carbon analysis. This course will provide an in-depth look at biogenic carbon accounting\, including when and how it should be counted\, as well as a discussion of end-of-life assumptions. \n  \nSpeaker: \n \nKate Carrigg\, PE | WoodWorks \nKate comes to WoodWorks with a decade of construction industry experience in the Pacific Northwest. Her involvement with wood structures began as an undergraduate student at Colorado State University\, where she participated in the NeesWOOD CAPSTONE shake table test in Japan. She earned a dual Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering and Wood Science from Oregon State University with a focus in structural engineering.
