“…By 2017, around 70% of the worldwide CLT production within Europe [32] was accountable for this notable increase. The prevalence of CLT in Europe has captured the interest of construction researchers and industry professionals worldwide (e.g., [33][34][35]).…”

Due to its recent emergence, there is a limited body of global market research available on CLT. Presently, the literature lacks comprehensive understanding regarding the present state, varied uses, and future outlook of CLT construction at a global level. The objective of this article is to address this knowledge gap by conducting semi-structured, in-depth interviews with CLT manufacturer representatives around the world, including Austria, Italy, Czech Republic, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Japan, Canada, and Uruguay. Critical findings emphasized that (1) the predominant mention was about the insufficient knowledge and experience within construction professionals; (2) a clear need for heightened expertise and training in the domain of CLT was underscored; (3) CLT was regarded as a favorable choice in efforts to combat climate change; (4) CLT was deemed highly appropriate for settings marked by variable climatic conditions; (5) CLT producers, particularly those with comprehensive, vertically integrated operations encompassing the entire processing cycle, remained unaffected by the rise in raw material costs; (6) the COVID-19 pandemic generally yielded positive impacts on the CLT market; (7) primary application of CLT, as emphasized by most manufacturers, is in residential and institutional projects; and (8) most manufacturers noted the expansive and boundless opportunities within the market, especially considering the climate crises as potential future avenues for the utilization of CLT. This article aims to advance the widespread adoption of CLT within the global construction sector. It will achieve this by elucidating the obstacles, possibilities, and forthcoming prospects associated with CLT.

“…EWPs, such as CLT, are increasingly finding application in progressively more demanding contexts, responding to the imperative of sustainable construction [20]. This expansion owes its success to substantial global research and development efforts since its inception in the 1990s [21]. The numerous merits of CLT encompass its capacity for low carbon emissions, high thermal insulation, exceptional in-plane and out-of-plane strength, a favorable strength-to-weight ratio, and structural stability [22].…”

Tall timber buildings represent an emerging and highly promising sector due to their potential to yield significant environmental and economic advantages throughout their entire life cycles. Nonetheless, the existing body of literature lacks a comprehensive exploration of the primary architectural and structural design considerations for such sustainable towers. To address this gap and to enhance our understanding of emerging global trends, this study scrutinized data from 49 tall timber building case studies from around the world. The key findings revealed the following: (1) Europe stood out as the region boasting the highest number of tall timber buildings, with North America and Australia following behind; (2) residential applications were the most preferred function for tall timber buildings; (3) central cores were the predominant choice for core configuration; (4) prismatic forms were the most prevalent design preferences; (5) composite materials were notably widespread, with timber and concrete combinations being the most prominent; (6) structural systems primarily featured shear–frame systems, especially shear-walled frames. By unveiling these contemporary characteristics of tall timber buildings, this research is expected to provide valuable insights to architects, aiding and guiding them in the design and execution of future sustainable projects in this field.
