Mass Timber Structure
Mass Timber has many attractive benefits, including being highly sustainable and an increased speed to market. As with all materials, there are also considerations that should be deliberated early in design in order to deliver a successful project.
Morrison Hershfield can help your team start your Mass Timber project off on the right path. Through an initial feasibility study, we meet your team to analyze the project goals, define methods and materials to help achieve those targets, and discuss timing, as critical decisions must be made early.
Procurement of building materials is a key component for Mass Timber projects. With knowledge of the Mass Timber market, suppliers, procurement, pre-fabrication and manufacturing process, we help identify qualified suppliers, provide equivalency analysis, and assist with construction installation sequencing to optimize the project schedule.
With a holistic approach, our team integrates our expertise in Building Envelope, Façade Engineering, Passive House, and Energy Modeling to meet your Mass Timber project’s performance goals.
