Webinar - How to Successfully Use Mass Timber In Your Next Project?

Hi Reader,

Mass Timber is here to stay. As a building material it has unique characteristics that lends itself to prefabrication, modular, and new construction technologies. Combined with other methods and material, mass timber has the potential to change the way we build houses in Canada.

But like any other new technology, it has a learning curve. While the industry has made great progress towards using this material over the past few years, we are still ways away from it's wide spread use.

In this webinar we aim to help you answer to main questions:

Is mass timber a viable material for your next project?
How can you increase your chances for successful integration of mass timber into the project?

Our presenters (and yours truly!) have first hand experience using mass timber in our previous projects.

I hope to see you in the webinar.

Thank you.
