interlocking cross laminated timber (iclt) is a prefabricated, cross-laminated solid wood wall and roof panel. similar to cross-laminated timber (clt) developed in europe, iclt is fabricated from two to seven layers of alternating 3” x 6” to 3” x 8” pine stock milled from waste wood. unlike other solid wood panel systems, however, iclt utilizes no fasteners and no adhesives, which reduces overall capital cost for either stainless fastener purchase and install or press purchase and set-up associated with glue lamination. conversely, standard mills and timber fabricators looking to diversify their product offering may produce iclt with existing infrastructure and equipment.

iclt is currently in the development, testing and code acceptance research phase in preparation for market acceptance in the next three to five years.
