Michigan Mass Timber Community of Practice
In December, at the 2023 Michigan Mass Timber Update, we announced the launch of the Michigan Mass Timber Community of Practice. Hosted by MassTimber@MSU, WoodWorks, and American Wood Council, this quarterly, virtual gathering will enable those who are engaged in mass timber projects and initiatives across Michigan to access technical assistance and peer learning in a supportive and confidential environment.
Who should join? Designers, engineers, developers, building owners, construction managers, installers, code officials, forest products producers, and more—all actively involved in mass timber projects in Michigan.
Next meeting: June 24, 2025 @ 1 pm ET

When the 2021 Michigan Building Code takes effect on April 9, developers, building owners, and project teams will have access to three new mass timber building types, allowing for wood building up to 18 stories. Ed Lisinski, Midwest Regional Manager with American Wood Council, will kick off our March 19 Michigan Mass Timber Community of Practice meeting with a presentation on the mass timber opportunities in these building codes, how they interact with fire codes, and more.
