WoodWorks

WoodWorks: A Dynamic Platform for Advancing Timber Construction

In an era where sustainability, innovation, and resource efficiency shape the built environment, WoodWorks emerges as a strategic event dedicated to expanding the use of wood in commercial and multi-residential buildings. Far more than a conventional trade show, WoodWorks acts as a professional convergence point for architects, engineers, developers, and construction firms who believe in the potential of timber to redefine modern architecture.

The core of the event lies in its emphasis on mass timber, BIM integration, and real-world project applications. Through carefully curated presentations, site visits, and interactive case studies, attendees gain insight into not only what’s possible with wood but how it’s already being done at scale around the world.

Whether you’re involved in early-stage design, structural engineering, building envelope solutions, or construction management, WoodWorks offers tailored content that speaks to your role in the evolving timber ecosystem.

The Significance of Timber in the Built Environment

Wood has re-emerged as a dominant material in architectural innovation, particularly due to its low carbon footprint, aesthetic warmth, and structural flexibility. At WoodWorks, this resurgence is not merely discussed — it is demonstrated through the lens of real buildings, completed or in-progress.

Across commercial, civic, educational, and residential projects, mass timber is now being implemented in ways that were unimaginable a decade ago. The event showcases how engineered wood products—like cross-laminated timber (CLT), glue-laminated beams (glulam), and laminated veneer lumber (LVL)—are driving a shift away from concrete and steel, especially in mid-rise and high-rise developments.

Attendees of WoodWorks gain not just technical information but a full understanding of design strategies, code navigation, material sourcing, and long-term performance of wood structures.

From Vision to Practice: Real Case Studies That Inspire

What sets WoodWorks apart is its commitment to real-world knowledge sharing. The event’s programming includes live presentations and detailed case studies of projects that pushed the boundaries of timber use in commercial construction.

Examples span:

Office towers constructed entirely with CLT

Multi-residential housing designed around passive wood systems

Hybrid projects blending steel with mass timber frameworks

Retrofitted commercial buildings using timber inserts for aesthetic and thermal upgrades

Each project is presented by a team of professionals—often the architect, engineer, and builder—offering a multi-perspective look at what went right, what had to be adapted, and how innovation emerged from challenges. These sessions are not sales pitches; they are open, instructive, and deeply valuable to professionals in the trenches.

Site Visits: Where the Learning Becomes Tangible

An essential feature of WoodWorks is the chance to visit active or completed mass timber sites. These guided tours allow participants to see construction methods up close, examine details of assembly, and ask questions to the project teams behind them.

Observe mass timber installation in-progress

Understand hybrid connection techniques with steel or concrete

Examine how fire safety and acoustics are handled in timber structures

Learn how digital models (BIM) translate into real-world results

See how prefabrication and modular systems reduce construction timelines

These tours bridge the gap between theory and execution and are often cited by past attendees as the most valuable component of the event.

Digital Innovation and Timber: BIM at the Center

As timber becomes more central in large-scale construction, the role of Building Information Modeling (BIM) becomes equally critical. WoodWorks places a strong emphasis on digital workflows that ensure precision, reduce waste, and allow for seamless coordination between disciplines.

Discussions around BIM include:

Creating digital twins of timber buildings

Clash detection in prefabricated timber modules

Optimizing structural layouts using parametric modeling

Streamlining approval processes with accurate visual simulations

For architecture and engineering firms, mastering BIM in the timber context is now not optional—it’s a competitive necessity. WoodWorks provides both the theoretical understanding and the software-specific knowledge to operate effectively in this space.

Who Should Attend WoodWorks

Professionals across multiple disciplines will find unique value at WoodWorks. The event is intentionally cross-functional, encouraging collaboration across traditional silos in the AEC industry.

Those who benefit most include:

Architects working with wood or planning to incorporate timber into future designs
