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.enAtribución-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 3.0 Chile (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 CL)Timber BuildingsStructural TypologiesReal Estate DevelopmentsTypological optimization for real estate developments: 8-9 story mass-timber buildings for seismic zones.Articlehttps://orcid.org/0009-0005-6129-0536https://doi.org/10.52202/080513-0122
