Abstract
AbstractThere is a growing interest in the construction industry to use timber to make structures more sustainable. This article discusses using mass timber flooring panels as part of steel‐framed buildings, covering performance, behaviour and best practice, market challenges and sustainability benefits. Embodied carbon comparisons were completed to demonstrate the environmental benefits of hybrid steel frames with mass timber floors and how they perform against voluntary industry targets set to tackle the climate crisis.
