This regional in-person seminar and tour hosted by WoodWorks explores practical structural design considerations for four to six story multi-family wood buildings. The presentation moves beyond baseline code requirements to address gravity framing, shrinkage detailing, floor vibration, stacked bearing wall loads, and lateral analysis including diaphragm flexibility and overturning forces. Following the educational session and lunch, participants tour Montana State University’s School of Computing at Gianforte Hall. The walk-through of the 55,000-square-foot mass timber facility offers an on-site look at hybrid structural systems, detailing, sequencing, and integrated sustainability strategies.
