Washington Post talks with Shaler about mass timber construction

The Washington Post talked with Stephen Shaler, director of the School of Forest Resources and associate director of the Advanced Structures and Composites Center, for its story “Forget the log cabin. Wood buildings are climbing skyward — with pluses for the planet.” Shaler said, “There’s not a silver bullet out there” with regards to mass timber construction. “But mass timber is one of the silver BBs in the shotgun shell. It’s important.”
