Instead, a stable, diverse wood industry is most desirable. It appears that 80-96% of the trees in need of removal to improve ecological conditions are between 5 and 11.9” in diameter.

  • Wood WORKS! Award Winners Demonstrate Wood Construction Is
    Wood WORKS! Award Winners Announced: wood design is healthy, sustainable, supports jobs (Toronto, November 7, 2012) A select group of Ontario’s leading architects, engineers, and project teams received Wood Design Awards at the 12th annual Wood WORKS! celebration in Toronto. The awards recognize people and organizations that, through design excellence, advocacy, and innovation, are advancing the use of wood in all types of construction across the province. “These are exciting times for wood design,” says Marianne Berube, executive director of the Ontario Wood WORKS! project. “Ongoing technical advancement in the forest product and construction industries, alongside creative design thinking, is giving rise to an incredible new generation of wood buildings.” “Design and construction solutions that incorporate sustainably sourced wood products support forest industry employment in the province, significantly lower the carbon footprint of any building, reduce our dependence on non-renewable materials and fossil fuels, and provide warm, beautiful, human-centered environments that people love,” added Berube. “It is our privilege to celebrate some of the best of these buildings each year through the awards program.” Winning projects include an innovation center that took the concept of ‘locally-sourced materials’ to a new level, obtaining all wood materials within a 30km radius of the project; a residence whose strict indoor environment requirements were best met with wood, clearly illustrating the health benefits of wood buildings; an urban in-fill condo project that skillfully used the building code to maximize the building’s height; and a park revitalization that used trees killed by the emerald ash borer to produce a facility that the jury called ‘an extraordinary example in this typology of building.’ Twelve awards were presented at the event.

  • Does Differentiation by Certified Raw Wood Change the Average Price At
    Article Does Differentiation by Certified Raw Wood Change the Average Price at the Tama Roundwood Market Center in Tokyo, Japan? Shohei Kameyama 1,† and Katsuaki Sugiura 2,*,† 1 Graduate School of Bioresource Sciences, Nihon University, Fujisawa 252-0880, Japan; [email protected] 2 College of Bioresource Sciences, Nihon University, Fujisawa 252-0880, Japan * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-466-84-3670 † Shohei Kameyama and Katsuaki Sugiura equally contributed as first authors. Abstract: It is important to understand price premiums related to certified raw wood to predict the future of forest certifications from the perspective of forestry enterprises. We focused on identifying the trading roundwood market data in the economic center of power in Tokyo. This study aimed to clarify Tama-certified raw wood prices under the local area certification scheme, forest-certified raw wood prices, and the handling volumes at the Tama Roundwood Market Center in Tokyo. Sales details of the Tama Roundwood Market Center were used to identify the handling volumes, Tama-certified raw wood prices, and FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) or SGEC (Japan-specific Sustainable Green Ecosystem Council)-certified raw wood prices. The FSC and SGEC have operated from the center since 2016. Data were collected from the 2006–2018 fiscal years. Our results showed that the volume of raw wood handled increased due to the regeneration-cutting project conducted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. On the other hand, there was no price premium for Tama- Citation: Kameyama, S.; Sugiura, K. certified raw wood under the local certification scheme or for FSC- or SGEC-certified raw wood.
