CROSS: Rotting plywood decking on grandstand

This month we present a report concerning multistorey cross-laminated timber buildings and their risk of collapse during a fire.

This month's CROSS report concerns water ingress that caused parts of the cross-laminated timber (CLT) structural frame of an eight-year-old building to rot.

This month we highlight a report raising concerns about the fire safety of multistorey buildings comprising cross-laminated timber structures and the risk of collapse in the event of an uncontrolled fire.
