A master plan approach to your property allows you to continually add different features as time goes on. Working with a design-build professional that can help guide you through the process is the starting point.

Over 3,000 people participated in the International #MassTimberConference in Portland, Oregon last month. It was a great experience and gave us a chance to catch up with a few hundred people we know in the industry. Our mass timber shop is also in Portland, less than 3 miles away from the conference center - and our team has been working in mass timber for over 30 years - see some of our projects here https://lnkd.in/gugss4Rc The linked article by Brian Libby is excellent and quotes Dean Lewis “There’s clearly a tide raising all ships and the following people from #Oregon Anyeley Hallova “Real estate development in the United States is almost exclusively white” Chandra D. Robinson “We have to start with equitable practices.” Joseph Furia,“Most folks are more than willing to be part of the mass timber solution. But it’s not actually a place yet that it’s driving demand,” said Joseph Furia of Portland’s World Forestry Center, a nonprofit devoted to sustainable forestry. “There are a lot of pain points in the system that are making it difficult to scale. How do we change that math? I run into people who are saying, ‘Where’s the beef?’ Show me the that you’re actually going to be able to do this project faster, cheaper than conventional products.” and even me "“We still have a shortage of builders and projects looking at mass timber because it has to be fabricated in a factory, and that’s a very different way of building that most of the construction industry is not familiar with". There are simultaneously so many opportunities but also so many challenges in #masstimber in the U.S. right now and especially here in #Oregon. Industry leaders in Oregon can and should lead ongoing discussions and monthly events on how to make the industry both more #equitable and #successful and welcome the global industry to an openly engage with Oregon companies continually and not only at an annual conference. We can and need to do this right and right now. It's time to build.

Project spotlight: Gledswood Hills master planned community in Sydney’s southwest by Sekisui House “The space Aquacomb gives back adds a lot to the experience of the home. Above ground tanks make it difficult to get up the side of the home. Above ground tanks don’t look as streamlined. With block sizes getting smaller, Aquacomb is even more important.” Mark Davey, General Manager Operations, Home Building at Sekisui House Aquacomb’s 1,500 to 3,000 litre retention tanks were used for all properties. Sekisui chose Aquacomb to match their aesthetic philosophy. Below ground tanks avoided distraction from their beautifully designed properties. Aquacomb helped Sekisui meet land use ratio requirements on the small blocks. Stormwater detention systems hidden under driveways saved on install time and costs. Our onsite training and guidance made project management easy. Do you have a Multi-Residential development in your pipeline in 2024 or beyond? Get in touch - we have 15K+ successful installs behind us. #stormwater #stormwatermanagement #australiamade #architecture #building #architecturedesign #australianarchitects #specifiers #masterbuilders

No company wants to spend additional time and money on rudimentary upkeep (like painting) when it can be avoided with pre-engineered steel building construction. Read my latest article about getting a larger building (with fewer columns for more open working space) that is nearly maintenance-free.
