I don't have any experience with CLT or Glue Laminated Timber (GLT) construction but there is a great deal of interest in this type of construction Stateside since it is perceived as renewable and potentially more cost effective than traditional construction methods. There has been some examination of using CLT/GLT for secondary road bridges so it is simply a matter of time before more buildings are built using it. The list would be very interested in what your findings are since your early adoption is likely to set some precedents or rules of thumb.
To get back to your original questions, I would think that signal propagation would probably be somewhat better than steel or concrete but much worse than drywall or aluminum stud construction. Obviously not much help here but very much interested in your conclusions! :) I would think that a physical Wi-Fi survey would be very much required since it will be hard to know how to model this would more data.

We have a new building currently going up that uses CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) for its floors. It will just be 220mm or 300mm CLT and raised floor tiles, no concrete or any other layers. Anyone of experience of wifi attenuation/losses through these materials? Regards, Jen.
