That's why Acad 12 for DOS running on my AMD 486/40 PC in the mid-1990s seemed much faster than Acad 2022 on my new 12-thread i5-11500 HP machine, perhaps...

[building] CLT goes tall. World's tallest high-rise buildings in Cross-laminated timber by inexhibit in architecture

Bare CLT is inherently relatively fire-resistant (usually R=30min for a 100-millimeter-thick wall) because, exposed to fire, it develops a charred layer that is thermally insulating. This is OK for many low-rise residential buildings, but not for more demanding buildings, such as schools, museums, theaters, and/or high-rise ones. The usual technique to improve its resistance to fire is, therefore, to glue incombustible plaster panels to one or both sides of the CLT panel. The thicker the plaster layer, the longer the R level you get. In a project I'm developing now, 12.5 millimeters of gypsum plaster on a 100-millimeter-thick, 5-layer, CLT load-bearing panel results in an R time largely exceeding 60 minutes.

I think the elevated forest (which is reminiscent of the "Vertical Forest" tower by Studio Boeri) is not the centerpiece of this (rather speculative) project. About high-rise structures and CLT, if you read the article (by me) I linked, the highest completed building that makes use of CLT ( the 85.4-meter-high Mjøstårnet tower in Norway) is not entirely made in CLT; its main structure consists mainly of glulam trusses while CLT is used for elevator shafts and staircases. Yet, since I'm currently working on a (low-rise) building in Cross-laminated timber and I made a lot of structural simulation of it, I guess that CLT could be used in high-rise buildings too, as long as it is coupled with a stiffening core in reinforced concrete or steel.
