Welcome to the seventh issue of the journal. We trust you enjoy the articles that shall be released this year.

The editorial board would also like to thank the many 'unsung heroes' who are lurking behind the scenes and contributing a lot to the development of articles, the peer-reviewers. Without the significant contribution from those individuals, the journal would not be a success.

The editorial team do hope you enjoy the sixth issue of the Mass Timber Construction Journal and we look forward to the many more editions. We hope that the publication of this first edition will encourage many other authors submit an article to our journal, thus increasing the body of knowledge in the subject area.

The Mass Timber Construction Journal is an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed, open-access, on-line journal devoted to providing leadership in mass timber, construction, manufacturing, materials science and other research.
