Question 1 of 12
Single answer
Why is a grid drawn around timber's comfortable spans and standard sizes so much more important than a grid for a concrete building?
A

Because mass timber is a prefabricated kit of manufactured elements that is only efficient when the grid suits its span range and standard sizes, whereas concrete is poured to fit almost any grid
C
Because timber grids must always be square
D
Because concrete has no span limits of any kind
