NHERI 10-STORY TALL TIMBER TOWER WITHSTANDS 100 EARTHQUAKES
The research conducted on the NHERI 10-Story structure has yielded promising results for the mass timber industry. It has successfully demonstrated that tall timber buildings can effectively withstand seismic force. This breakthrough in earthquake-resistant design has far-reaching implications for the future of timber construction, offering a sustainable and resilient alternative for tall buildings in seismic-prone areas like the West Coast. As of June 2023, the 10-story timber tower has undergone over 100 seismic tests with no significant structural damage to the building. The success of the testing bolsters confidence in the use of mass timber as a sustainable and resilient building material.
Tall Timber + Seismic ResiliencySETTING NEW RECORDS
Ascent, the groundbreaking timber tower, proudly holds the prestigious title of the world's tallest hybrid mass timber building. At 25 stories, this iconic project gracefully combines the strength of mass timber with cutting-edge construction techniques, revolutionizing the possibilities of vertical living. The project is the recipient of the 2023 Structural Award from the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat.
Ascent has captivated industry experts and garnered global recognition, hailed as a true testament to the limitless potential of tall timber construction. The project yielded significant schedule savings through our detailed prefabrication and coordination expertise. Additionally, Timberlab facilitated the testing of glulam columns to receive a 3-hour fire-resistance rating - a test that had yet to be conducted anywhere in the world.
