Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) construction has seen a significant rise in popularity in recent years. This innovative building technique involves using multiple layers of wood panels that are glued together at right angles. The result is a strong and durable material that can be used for various applications in construction.
One of the main reasons for the rise of CLT construction is its environmental benefits. As concerns about climate change and sustainability continue to grow, architects, engineers, and builders are turning to CLT as an eco-friendlier alternative to traditional construction methods. BECK has responded to this concern with the LIGNOLOC® Wooden Nail System for sustainable fastening of CLT, LCLT, and NLT materials. Let’s explore more.

Joinery is an important skill to master when working with reclaimed wood. Since reclaimed wood often has unique shapes and sizes, it's important to know how to properly join pieces together to create a strong and stable structure. Common joinery techniques include mortise and tenon joints, dovetail joints, and tongue and groove joints. By mastering these techniques, you can ensure that your projects are not only visually appealing but also durable and long-lasting. Consider using LignoLoc® Wooden Nails for joining your wood materials – the lignin welding of the two materials creates an impenetrable bond and it’s as easy as shooting in a nail!
