Development of a Hybrid Wall-Framed System

Abstract

This paper explores the development of a novel wall-skeletal modular structure using Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT). Research by Design methodology was employed to examine the hybrid system's feasibility and sustainability. The study includes designing and testing a CLT pavilion, highlighting the system's potential in diverse architectural applications. Key findings involve structural load analysis software and the adaptability of this modular approach in various building types.
