Brock Commons Time Lapse - UBC Tall Wood Building : www.naturallywood.com Brock Commons is an 18-storey hybrid mass timber residence at The University of British Columbia (UBC). The building is comprised of 17 storeys of mass timber construction above a concrete podium and two concrete stair cores. The floor structure consists of 5-ply cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels supported on glue-laminated timber (glulam) columns. The roof is made of prefabricated sections of steel beams and metal decking. Brock Commons has the capacity for just over 400 students with floorplans ranging from single bed studios to 4-bed accommodations. Study and social spaces are located on the ground floor with a student lounge on the 18th floor, where the wood structure is left exposed for demonstration and educational purposes. Wood, a renewable material, was chosen in part to reflect the university’s commitment to sustainability. The building was also designed to meet LEED Gold certification. The estimated avoided and sequestered greenhouse gases from the wood used in the building is equivalent to removing 511 cars off the road for a year. The total carbon dioxide equivalent avoided by using wood products over other materials in the building is more than 2,432 metric tonnes.

O’Connor, 2010, A Synthesis of Research on Wood Products and Greenhouse Gas Impacts, FPInnovations (this relates to carbon stored and avoided GHG). **CO2 refers to CO2 equivalent.
