Cross-laminated timber has a variety of unique acoustical challenges which must be considered to properly realize the full benefits of this new way to build.
Matt recently contributed to a new reference book on cross-laminated timber design for practitioners which can be found at your local bookseller or online: https://www.amazon.com/Cross-Laminated-Timber-Design-Structural-Properties/dp/1260117995
The book, Cross Laminated Timber Design, includes chapters on the unique challenges of mass timber design, including structural, fire, and acoustical considerations.
