Fire Protection Meets Natural Beauty

The Clemson University Nieri Family Alumni and Visitors Center is a signature Mass Timber project that redefines the campus landscape. This dynamic hub centralizes key university departments such as the Visitor center, Admissions Office, and Careers Center – creating a single destination for students, alumni leadership, and industry partners. The building embodies Clemson’s commitment to innovation and sustainability through it’s hybrid mass timber structural system integrating exposed timber elements for an inviting aesthetic that aligns with the university’s celebrated forestry programs. Sansin specified the Firestop 99 coating system for the exposed timber columns, providing essential fire protection while preserving the natural beauty of the exposed wood.
