Agenda
Here’s a preview of the 2026 agenda topics.
Stay tuned for updates.
Mass Timber
Topics may include the design and engineering of mass timber buildings, hybrid systems that combine mass timber with other materials, and key fire, acoustical, and code considerations. Sessions may also explore lessons learned and best practices from completed mass timber projects.
Mass Wood Construction
Presentations may cover structural design considerations for modular wood buildings, shipping and installation challenges, and strategies for effective coordination between design teams and modular manufacturers. Case studies will highlight lessons learned from completed modular wood projects.
Panelized and Prefabricated Systems
Sessions may examine a range of panelized and prefabricated wood systems, including mass timber panels, light-frame wall panels, and floor and roof cassette systems. Additional topics may include digital workflows and emerging technologies that support efficient panelized construction.
Project Delivery & Industry Adoption
Discussions may focus on developer and contractor perspectives on offsite construction, cost considerations and financial feasibility, workforce and supply chain challenges, and the policies, incentives, and market factors influencing broader adoption of wood-based offsite construction systems.
