Take a look at our newly certified Douglas Fir / SPF hybrid #CLT panel where the nonvisual layers of the panel are SPF and the outside, visual face is Douglas Fir. This gives clients the options for finishes, while remaining very cost effective. Currently we are delivering 150,000 sqft of these 5 ply panels to a project on Pennsylvania! Reach out to Element5 and myself to chat about our next #masstimber project

We've been updating the case studies on our website, including this one for the new #masstimber building for The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH)! 🌟 The project has broken ground and once completed, it will be Canada’s largest hybrid mass timber public facility. 👉🏼 The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) is Canada's largest mental health teaching hospital, one of the world's leading research centers in its field, and serves over 38,000 patients annually. 👉🏼 With 385,000 sq. ft. of space, this 7-storey building will house1,400 staff and will contain research and health labs, space for clinical trials, academic and lecture space, office spaces and a central atrium. 👉🏼 The curvilinear hybrid mass timber structure reduces the carbon footprint significantly compared to conventional building systems, and helps to create a sense of warmth and well-being, reducing stress and increasing creativity. Element5’s Role 🌲 As a design-assist partner from the schematic design stage, Element5 played a key role in integrating cross-laminated timber into the CLT/concrete composite floor systems. 🏗️ We collaborated with the full design team and external partners to conduct fire and acoustic testing on mockup assemblies and contributed to developing the design of the mass timber connections. 🌲 All CLT components will be manufactured and transported from our St. Thomas, Ontario facility. 👷🏽 Project Team Includes Architects: KPMB Architects, Treanor General Contractor: PCL Construction Structural Engineer: Blackwell Civil Engineer: WSP Mass Timber Supplier: Element5

Terrific video of one of our projects in progress in Michigan. We're proud to be supplying #CLT and #Glulam for 3 separate buildings on site! The project consists of a new 120,000 sq. ft., 2-storey clubhouse #masstimber hybrid building consisting of steel/columns and beams & CLT floors and roof panels, and Glulam columns and beams in featured areas. Two other buildings are single-story hybrid buildings with CLT roof decks.
TIMBER! Don't worry, this thing isn't coming down. Clark Contracting Services is showcasing their mass timber expertise with this beautiful Kalamazoo Country Club facility. It's truly a work of art that could turn anyone into a golfing fan. Nate Gabel invited me to use my drone to capture the hard work and skill of this impressive team. Looking forward to seeing the final product! Huge shout out to all of those involved Kalamazoo Country Club, CSM Group, Element5, TowerPinkster, and The H. Chambers Company!

📢 Our Frame 122 #masstimber project is complete and is featured on the cover of this month's Architectural Record magazine! 📢 This 5-storey, 15-unit residential building in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn is comprised of two and three-bedroom rental units. 🌲 Designed by Brent Buck Architects, it's a #Glulam post-and-beam structure with #CLT floors and ceilings. 👉🏼 The apartments showcase the building’s gorgeous mass timber by keeping it exposed with a natural visual-grade finish. 👉🏼 The exterior combines brick and corrugated metal panel façades, with a recessed entryway featuring large CLT doors with intricate circular cutouts. “Mass timber is certainly becoming more prevalent, and it was exciting to utilize the material in New York,” notes Brent Buck. “I hope that this project shows people that it is not only possible to use, but that it is resilient and often looks great too.” 🔗 Link to article in comments. 👷🏽 PROJECT TEAM Developer: Frame Home Architect: Brent Buck Architects Structural Engineers: Murray Engineering PC MEP Engineer: ANZ Consulting Engineering, PLLC Contractor: CM & Associates Construction Management Mass Timber Manufacturer: Element5 Installer: Walters Group 📷 Photos: Christopher Sturman
