Resumen de Durability of mass timber: managing moisture effectively
The durability of mass timber structures is greatly influenced by the extent to which the timber is exposed to moisture. Understanding the conditions in which moisture ingress, and associated biological agents, can become a problem and designing with durability in mind can ensure the long-term performance and resilience of mass timber structures. This article provides an introduction to moisture management in mass timber structures, including key design, site-handling and installation principles that will help to ensure longevity.
