Mass Timber Construction Podcast
In this week's episode, we welcome the launch of the International Association for Mass Timber Construction LinkedIn Page! Upon the launch of the new site Paul Kremer said "It is with great pleasure that the founding committee (to be announced soon) bring to you the very first global association focused exclusively on mass timber construction. In the coming weeks we shall provide a series of overview "marketing bites" to inform you about how the association will work, and importantly what value it brings to you, and why you should be involved. The association is 'inclusive' and does not detract from the great work being conducted by other associations in countries where mass timber is established - you understand your local markets well and do an excellent job. We offer an open invitation to state-based associations to become part of our global association, let's see how we can work together. More on this at a later time." It's never too early to get your registration signed-up for the International Mass Timber Conference an in-person event in #Portland #Oregon #USA in April 2022!

A 4 storey,41-unit project is part of CMHC's Rapid Housing Initiative (RHI), launched in 2020 as part of the Government of Canada's National Housing Strategy. Industry analysis suggests that around 85% of all new homes in Scotland are built using timber at their core, with the material’s use in England and Wales also growing more popular each year. Architecture studios Jakob+MacFarlane and T.ark have designed a low-carbon cross-laminated timber building called Living Landscape that will transform a landfill site in Iceland's capital city.
