Treehugger
Checkout this article to see how Katerra, an ambitious, construction startup, is demonstrating the remarkable earthquake resistance of
Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) in building design. Slotted connection plates reinforce shear wall systems enhancing building and occupant in seismic regions across the world.
