Skanska work makes a clear contribution to society and the environment around them. Whether they are building schools to provide inspiring spaces for learning, roads to connect communities or hospitals to care for patients, it all contributes to their purpose – they build what matters. Skanska Group uses knowledge & foresight to shape the way people live, work, and connect. More than 135 years in the making, they’re one of the world’s largest development and construction companies, with 2020 revenue totalling SEK 159 billion. They operate in select markets throughout the Nordics, Europe and the United States. Together with our customers and the collective expertise of our 32,000+ teammates, we create innovative and sustainable solutions that support healthy living beyond our lifetime. 

In this special guest episode I speak with Steve Clem who is the Senior Vice President- Project Planning Services and Tym who is the Mass Timber Superintendent at Skanska, both are based in Portland, Oregon. We discuss the changes to global construction as mass timber becomes more prominent across the planet. We also discuss the nature of changes in reporting for sustainable construction, and  how the impacts of the EU (through the Swedish HQ) are driving a different agenda in North America and beyond. A highlight is the discussion of the emergence of carbon accounting through tools like EC3 and LCA.  Please enjoy my conversation with Steve and Tym.
