Regional Online Seminar (NY)

How can architects, engineers, and contractors collaborate to meet the growing demand for mass timber buildings? While developers across the country are pursuing mass timber projects, firms have varying degrees of familiarity with the products and practicalities of designing, sourcing, and building a modern mass timber structure.

This presentation builds on the spirit of shared learning within the mass timber community to provide an overview of products, planning, design, and implementation techniques to maximize the benefits these buildings can deliver. The discussion will include:

  • Best practices for interaction between manufacturer, design team, and pre-construction manager that can lead to cost efficiency and safety on-site
  • Potential construction schedule savings and construction fire safety practices when using prefabricated mass timber elements
  • Mass timber’s benefits, including structural versatility, prefabrication, lighter carbon footprint, and reduced labor costs
