Rapid growth of urban populations and associated environmental concerns created an opportunity for city planners and developers to consider sustainable building systems. A decision on the selection of the masstimber building, by different stakeholders, should consider economics, aesthetics, technology, regulations andpolitical factors. The political factors are indeed satisfied as the Canadian timber industry and NaturalResources Canada are backing design and construction of tall-timber buildings. One such initiative in BritishColumbia (BC) is Forrest Innovation Investment (FII) Wood First - 3 Year Strategy.? Canadian engineers anddesigners are at the forefront and are pushing the limit of tall-timber design. The 2019 CSA 086 and 2020 NBCincreased the height of cross-laminated timber (CLT) to 12 storeys.? With increase in building height, however,timber being lighter material, is subject to lateral loads from wind and earthquake (the focus of this proposal).Thus, there is an opportunity to propose an innovative building system and design principles.In line with the "Wood First Initiative" program of the government of BC, in the current proposal, it isenvisioned to develop a comprehensive design guideline for mid- to tall-mass-timber buildings (6-20 storeys).It is believed that the availability of design guideline would enhance the confidence of architects, structuralengineers, owners and contractors towards tall mass-timber buildings. Outcome of the proposed researchwould increase the volume of wood in buildings, which will support the forestry business in Canada.

城市人口的快速增长和相关的环境问题为城市规划者和开发商考虑可持续建筑系统创造了机会。不同利益相关者在选择大型木结构建筑时应考虑经济、美学、技术、法规和政治因素。由于加拿大木材工业和加拿大自然资源部支持高层木结构建筑的设计和建造，政治因素确实得到了满足。不列颠哥伦比亚省 (BC) 的一项此类举措是 Forrest Innovation Investment (FII) Wood First - 3 年战略。加拿大工程师和设计师走在最前沿，正在突破高层木结构设计的极限。 2019 年 CSA 086 和 2020 年 NBC 将交叉层压木材 (CLT) 的高度增加到 12 层。然而，随着建筑高度的增加，木材作为较轻的材料，会受到风和地震的侧向荷载（本提案的重点）。因此，有机会提出创新的建筑系统和设计原则。 BC省政府的“木材优先倡议”计划，在目前的提案中，设想为中高层木结构建筑（6-20层）制定综合设计指南。相信设计的可用性指南将增强建筑师、结构工程师、业主和承包商对高层木结构建筑的信心。拟议研究的结果将增加建筑物中的木材量，这将支持加拿大的林业业务。
