DESCRIPTION
This presentation from the 2013 AIA Convention reviews how engineered wood systems are evolving to allow for higher structures using wood. It explores the hybrid systems that allow the construction of high-rise buildings with wood as the primary construction material. Finally, it highlights how a 40-story wood structure can deliver superior energy efficiency relative to similarly scaled buildings.

Course Description
Introduction
The growing exploration of new engineered and hybrid technologies is driving the wood trend to soaring new heights, with industry visionaries expecting to see high-rise wood structures within our lifetime.
Nowhere is that vision more clear than in a 40-story design recently recognized as an honorable mention recipient in the “Office Building of the Future” Design Competition, held by the Commercial Real Estate Development Association (NAOIP).

Our Goals: 1. To define an Innovative solution, to the issues of an office building of
the future, addressing issues such as flexibility, daylighting, attractiveness and energy efficiency.
2. To ensure that our solution also includes innovative sustainable strategies that minimizes the “Embodied Carbon Footprint” as well as the “Operational Carbon Emissions”.
3. To define a solution that is uniquely Iconic and instantly branding.
4. To develop a conceptual structural system for tall buildings that utilizes mass timber.
Our Solution—The 2012 NAIOP Office Building of the Future Competition
1. Wood stores carbon dioxide.
2. Wood is a renewable resource.
3. Wood appeals to people’s senses.
4. Wood can meet the structural
requirements for long spans.
5. Wood is easy to work with.
6. Wood buildings are lighter and more flexible.
1. Wood is economical.
2. Advances in Wood technology is
providing solutions for tall wood building structures.

WHY WOOD?
• British Columbia: 15% of BC GDP comes from the production of wood products.
• With modern timber management practices more timber is grown than is used, therefore sufficient material resources are available.

Through the process of Photosynthesis, plant materials(wood) convert Carbon Dioxide into Oxygen.

Earthquake Safety: Wood is lighter and more flexible
1. Redundant load paths for seismic forces.
2. High stress to weight ratio.
3. The ability to flex thereby absorbing and dissipating seismic forces.
1. Wood structural panels,
such as plywood, acting in combination with studs and joists, create shear walls and diaphragms.
The failure of buildings and numerous deaths from recent earthquakes is fueling demand for safer housing.

Earthquake Analysis, Shake Table
PERFORMANCE DURING A FIRE
• Fire safety strategies include:
1. compartmentalization
2. Fire/smoke detectors
3. Sprinkler systems
4. Smoke and heat extraction systems
5. Protected/secure escape routes
6. Minimal penetrations through timber walls.
• In 1994-1998 only 7% of reported structure fires had any type of automatic extinguishing equipment present. By 2003-2007 this percentage has risen to 10%.
Our Solution—The 2012 NAIOP Office Building of the Future Competition
PERFORMANCE DURING A FIRE
• Regarding public safety, timber is relatively harmless when you consider the impact of smoke density and toxicity produced during a fire.
• Timber performs favorably in comparison to other building materials.
• During a fire, the surface turns to charcoal (charring), reducing the rate it burns by 50%. Exposed steel connections are usually the weakest link. Hidden connections, protected by wood, perform better.
Our Solution—The 2012 NAIOP Office Building of the Future Competition
SPRINKLERS
• When sprinklers are activated and operate they are effective 97% of the time. For home fires, death is reduced by 83% and property damage is reduced by 40-70%

To achieve continuity and ductility, wood works best when combined with steel. To achieve strength and acoustic qualities, wood works best when combined with concrete. In essence this is a “Reinforced Wood” structure C.C. Yao, RJC Engineering, Vancouver, B.C.

Office Building of the Future
Competition
Our submission attempts to address the issues of creating effective and attractive working environments that are appealing to a broad cross section of the working public. We believe that a tall 40-storey office building from wood, provides opportunities to be uniquely Iconic, instantly branding, flexible, aesthetically pleasing and attractive to potential tenants.
