Innovations in wood engineering, like mass timber, have expanded possibilities for wood’s role in structural design. Combining mass timber products with concrete or steel systems in a hybrid approach can help achieve a project’s objectives while delivering on design, budget, and sustainability goals. Learn more about how industry leaders are embracing hybrid structural systems to unlock seemingly endless possibilities to build innovative, beautiful, sustainable projects in the new Hybrid LookBook.

This resource includes six project examples that explore hybrid systems allowing for innovation across building sectors, including mixed-use, commercial, multifamily, civic, and education.

“Mass timber plays well with other structural materials. Often the right structural solution for a project is not a pure mass timber structure, but a hybrid solution.”
