How Timberlab Prevents Moisture Issues in Mass Timber Projects

How do leading mass timber manufacturers ensure their products arrive on-site ready to perform? In this video, Jubel Jones, Foreman of the Hand Fabrication Crew at Timberlab Northwest, explains why moisture management is a critical part of Timberlab’s manufacturing process and quality control program. From lamination stock to final fabrication, Timberlab monitors moisture content at multiple stages to help maintain product quality, dimensional stability, and long-term performance. By targeting a steady-state moisture content of 12%–14%, their team helps reduce the risk of environmental shock when products are shipped to drastically different climates.

Whether you’re involved in mass timber manufacturing, engineered wood products, fabrication, or construction, this video highlights why moisture measurement remains a critical step in delivering high-quality wood products.
