    Mockup of prefabricated CLT modules for small social condos: Evaluation of machining, manufacturing, assembly, and performance for standardization in Chile

    Due to the growing housing deficit, Chile developed an initiative to densify well-located 9x18 meter lots through "small social housing condominiums." So, the question arises: What can we improve from industrialization to make this opportunity more efficient, better, and more massive? This work arises from the observation that the main gaps in the awarding of subsidies in this country are the speed of response from the executors, construction times, insecurity in the neighborhoods, access to qualified labor, quality of construction, and flexibility in design. In response to these gaps, the "Industrialized Building 4 CLT modules" proposes a permanent stock of prefabricated housing, more than 90% prefabrication of the works, zero storage on site, maximum productivity in manufacturing lines, quality control in the factory and flexible modular design.

    Typological optimization for real estate developments: 8-9 story mass-timber buildings for seismic zones.
    (World Conference on Timber Engineering 2025, 2025) Ugarte A., Juan José; Armanet, Gerardo; Ugarte G., Juan José; Sierra, Andrés; Romero, Jorge; Cárcamo, Sebastián; González, Maria Jesus; Marcone, Fernando
    In recent decades, different types of mass timber construction have been developed. These can be grouped according to materials -all timber, timber-concrete, timber-steel, timber-concrete-steel- and types -panels, posts-beams, and 3D modules-. After a process based on research and specific projects developed by the authors of this work, through the design with the post-and-beam typology, CLT slabs, and reinforced concrete cores and a methodology that included interviews with different real estate developers, this work resulted in a building of between 8 and 9 floors that is efficient from the point of view of the industry, that responds to seismic, cost and architectural program requirements.
