**5. Conclusions**

CLT is a versatile building material that can be used to construct the structural system for single-family homes. The addition of CLT to the international building

If CLT is to be considered for use in single-family projects, then the efficiency of the workflow should be maximized. The following is a list of the recommendations to help improve workflow in a residential CLT project:
