Early Design Decisions: Priming Mass Timber Projects for Success
November 12 @ 10:30 am - 1:30 pm CST
- In Person
Regional In-Person Seminar (Houston, TX)
Mass timber is a unique, non-commodity building material, and to lay the groundwork for success, teams must make certain critical decisions as early as possible. These decisions can have a significant impact on cost and can either increase or limit opportunities later in design. This presentation will look at:
- Early project decisions and design steps, focusing on how to optimize projects for mass timber
- Construction types, fire ratings, column grids and beam/panel spans, acoustics, and MEP integration
- Completed mass timber projects illustrating the variety of viable options when navigating these key decisions
Please join us for lunch following the seminar.
