Join Rothoblaas for a practical, engineer-focused session on fastener design for mass timber and hybrid structures. Learn how to use the Rothoblaas Design Guide to speed connection calculations, check code, and improve design efficiency. The guide includes 450 pages with 80 ready-to-use fastening solutions. Design values are per ICC-ES evaluation reports and published in the guide.
We’ll cover how to match screw types, materials, and coatings to service conditions, plus best practices for CLT, glulam, LVL, and hybrid timber systems.
Attendees will leave with a practical toolkit for code-compliant design, installation, and performance, backed by our U.S. technical team.
- Continuing education credit is being provided by Rothoblaas.
- This webinar will be recorded and made available on the STRUCTURE website.
Presented by: Hannes Blaas

Hannes Blaas leads Rothoblaas USA from Allentown, PA, with a focus on practical solutions for mass-timber fastening and connections. He works with structural engineers, fabricators, and builders across North America to simplify design, speed installation, and meet code requirements. His team delivers engineer-focused training, tools, and project support for CLT, glulam, LVL, and hybrid systems. Hannes speaks regularly on connection design and field performance for timber structures.
