Faster. Lower Cost. More Sustainable.
A Unique Mass Timber Structure
We use a unique combination of mass plywood floor panels point-supported on mass plywood columns to achieve a lightweight, highly efficient, environmentally friendly structure that is extremely fast to erect.
-
Our building materials come from sustainably managed sources, local sources and have incredibly low embodied carbon.
-
Prefabricated column & floor panels mean we can build an entire floor of superstructure in hours, not days.
-
Lighter Weights equal reduced building weights, smaller foundations, and smaller seismic resisting systems.
Prefabricated building components
We use factory-built, prefabricated components wherever possible to reduce site labor costs and construction time. By building key components in the factory we can achieve higher quality control at lower costs.
-
By constructing in the factory we are able to achieve a higher level of quality control and production efficiency. A crew of 7 workers can install each panel in under 15 minutes on site.
-
All mass timber components are fabricated directly from digital models and shipped to the site just in time for installation
-
Multiple trades install their MEP systems into racks in the factory, which reduces the time trades spend on site installing their work.
Cutting edge design and construction delivery technology
Our integrated team leverages the latest in design and construction delivery technology to improve coordination between the design team, consultants and subcontractors.
-
Federated virtual models allows for coordination of all trades prior to the start of construction.
-
Using digital twin models allows us to identify constructability issues prior to site work, and to accurately anticipate project costs and schedules.
-
All mass timber components are robotically fabricated directly from digital models, reducing production time and cost, and increasing accuracy.
Standardized products & components
All of our projects use the same standardized products and components in order to reduce costs and timelines across all stages of the project - from design through construction.
-
Our kit of parts reduces design engineering time, cost and complexity. It helps us streamline materials procurement and supply chain management. And it helps us achieve consistent, high quality construction at lower costs.
-
Our standardized units improve cost predictability, reduce design & engineering time, and simplify supply chain management.
-
By standardizing our designs we can procure materails directly from factories all around the world, saving between 250-500% per line item.
