Timber Core
Note sull'episodio
On this episode of Beyond the Beam, Russ and Erin of Carpentry Plus are joined by KL&A Structural Engineer Chris Kendall to trace the origin of Timber Core — a prefabricated, modular mass-timber stair system born from the frustration of slow on-site stair installs. They dig into the craftsmanship in the details, how the system handles seismic and fire requirements, and where they see it expanding well beyond mass timber buildings.
