报告摘要：

Wood—a natural, sustainable, and renewable biocomposite—has a long history of serving humanity as a primary construction material. Advances in technology have led to the development of a wide range of modern engineered wood products (EWPs), such as laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and cross‑laminated timber (CLT), which are now widely adopted in the construction sector. This talk will introduce the use of EWPs in building construction and explore how wood buildings contribute to climate change mitigation and support the principles of a circular economy.
