2025 Southern Symposium

Building the Future with Mass Timber Sessions

This symposium will illustrate the importance of mass timber in campus design and planning healthy, sustainable campus buildings. Design professionals and industry leaders will discuss how building code, project delivery, budgeting, and technical requirements play a key role in delivery of these projects. Join us at Clemson University to gain valuable insight from experts on why mass timber is vital to the economy, its role in reducing carbon, and why mass timber projects are so successful.

Learning Outcomes


  1. Define the use of mass timber construction in supporting university sustainability and carbon reduction goals for a healthier campus.

  2. Examine mass timber buildings in the context of construction efficiency, fire and life safety, occupant wellbeing, cost, and other potential advantages.

  3. Explain the economic development impact at the campus, regional, and state level as a direct outcome of a mass timber focus.

  4. Apply lessons learned and highlight possibilities for expanding mass timber’s use and application in campus projects, resulting in more sustainable environments and better wellbeing outcomes for occupants.
