Meeting BC's affordability and climate crises head on will require a rethink in how we deliver housing. Enter the Local Government Offsite Housing Accelerator, which is pioneering off-site, pre-fabricated wood construction. Join us for a free webinar on December 10 from 10:00–11:30 a.m. (PST) to examine standardized coach & multiplex designs and permitting. We'll hear from architects, designers, and provincial and local governments about the path forward. https://lnkd.in/eEmwJUDa

*How Pre-Engineered Buildings Designs are Solving Challenges in Rural Areas* Rural areas are rapidly developing in many aspects, particularly in construction. Companies are targeting these regions to expand their businesses and legacy. As interest in Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEBs) grows, these structures are becoming increasingly popular in rural areas. PEBs are proving to be a game-changer, offering numerous benefits tailored to the specific needs of countryside construction. Rural construction often faces challenges that PEBs address effectively with their key advantages: 1. Faster Construction 2. Cost-Effectiveness 3. Reduced Reliance on Skilled Labor 4. Durability and Resilience 5. Design Flexibility 6. Scalability and Future Expansion 7. Sustainability Considerations Pre-Engineered Building Designs are aiding rural areas in rapid growth and transformation by being cost-effective and efficient. Due to the many benefits listed above, companies increasingly prefer PEBs. Willus Infrastructure takes pride in delivering the best PEB designs and structures. Here’s a detailed article on how Pre-Engineered Building Design is solving challenges in rural areas. https://lnkd.in/gd-g5GTB For more details please contact +91 9910223194 #willusinfrastructure #ruralconstruction #ruralareas #warehousingsolutions #Smartsteel #SteelConstruction #preengineeredbuildings #peb #infrastructuredevelopment #steelbuildings #prefabrication #smartbuilding #preengineeredstructure #industrialbuilding #factory #steelindustry #sustainability

Check out this well written article from Lisa Podesto at Swinerton that outlines many of the challenges and benefits to consider when evaluating mass timber for your projects. We have to get beyond the $/sf comparison of mass timber and think more holistically about the value and long term benefits that mass timber brings to a project. It also features some amazing project photography, but I'm a little biased. #masstimber #masstimberconstruction #embodiedcarbon
Excited to share my insights about the advantages of mass timber, its role in reducing the embodied carbon of buildings, and the exciting future of industrialized construction in my latest article with BuiltWorlds. https://lnkd.in/g8hU5g2G #ConstructionInnovation #MassTimber #SustainableBuilding #OffsiteConstruction #Swinerton #BuildingTheFuture

Modular Construction The demand for modular construction is on the rise, particularly in urban settings. Modular designs not only speed up construction time but also allow for higher quality control and reduced on-site waste. I’ve been looking into how modular buildings can also enhance structural safety and flexibility. Are you seeing this trend in your area? #ModularConstruction #UrbanDevelopment

The construction industry is grappling with rising costs—over 11% in the last year alone. While material prices like steel and cement are stabilizing, labor costs continue to climb, creating new challenges for builders and clients alike. I recently discussed this on Urban Insights by Jayashree Kurup exploring how long-term decisions—such as adopting energy-efficient materials and durable designs—can offer value amidst cost pressures, reshaping the way we approach construction projects. It’s time to shift focus from short-term savings to sustainable, impactful choices. Tune in to the episode for more insights https://lnkd.in/gcDCy2qS and would love to know your thoughts on the same. #construction #realestate #urbaninsights #mccoymart #constructionindustry

#offsiteconstruction #internationalcodecouncil #modularconstruction news Utah... '...Utah is aiming to combat the affordable housing crisis it faces and sees off-site construction as part of the solution. This new program will help facilitate the efficient use of off-site construction throughout the state and create a regulatory path for modular home builders. Benefits of using off-site construction include accelerated project timelines, cost savings and improved project quality. Off-site construction also has lower wastage rates, resulting in environmental benefits and cost savings. 👉 States like Utah that are looking to address housing affordability issues can use off-site construction as a solution..."
