Kalesnikoff

New Westminster’s new aquatics and community centre is named təməsew̓txʷ Aquatic and Community Centre, a hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ word for ‘sea otter house’, after the playful animal. This facility, designed by HCMA Architecture + Design, is one of Canada's pioneering zero-carbon aquatic centres. The new centre creates a combined 10,684 sq. m. state-of-the-art recreational facility. KMT provided the exposed cross-laminated timber (CLT) roof and wall panels with exposed Glulam beams. The need for a clear span across the 50 m lap pool dictated a long span steel truss solution. The north facing sawtooth roof allows for natural daylight and passive ventilation into the pool. The seamless CLT soffit was realized by hanging the CLT panels from the truss bottom chord, resulting in design that integrated structure, architecture, and sustainability. This vibrant facility will serve as the heart of the community for years to come.

We’re excited to see the installation of our volumetric mass timber modules. We have a number of options from classroom/child care facilities to multifamily residential units. Each module is fully pre-fabricated off-site, resulting in rapid assembly on-site, empowering builders to streamline construction, resulting in faster project timelines and enhanced efficiency. #ModularConstruction #ModularMassTimber #CrossLaminatedTimber #CLT #Glulam #CLT #GreenBuildings #TimberIndustry

There was a lot to be learned touring our new #masstimbermodules with Danny Greenberg and Peter Boeckeler. This is a different style of #modularconstruction than I am used to and I was blown away by the shorter build cycles and smaller crew sizes. There were some incredible details that lead to very precise layouts and incredible quality. From laying out wall framing with CNC notches to prefabricated sub assemblies my mind was a buzz on how this approach can help propel the modular industry forward.

CLT modular progress update!! Our first 60 CLT mods were installed in just 5 days. Great job by the site team and all involved. You can really start to see the benefits of CLT modular structures thanks to the precision and stability of the mass timber materials! Kalesnikoff

The pump house is taking shape at Finch Drive in Squamish. Finch Drive is a Master-Planned Mountainside Community by Diamond Head Developments and is designed by Stark Architecture. The pump house features Kalesnikoff Cross-laminated timber (CLT) and Glulam (GLT). The applications of cross-laminated timber in construction projects are virtually limitless, seamlessly integrating into various project types, including industrial developments. Mass timber can be used in various industrial applications to reduce carbon intensity, weight, and installation requirements.

We’re thrilled to share progress of Kalesnikoff's prefabrication and modular facility in Castlegar, BC. Glulam and GLT is currently being installed with structural steel. When it is completed later this year, the facility will add 100,000 square feet of manufacturing space. Thank you to all those supporting this project.

Attention Kootenay people! We are looking to grow our team here in Castlegar/Nelson. If you are a payroll professional in the area (or want to live in this beautiful part of the world!) check out our posting for more information.

Kalesnikoff is excited to have supplied the mass timber for the Alliance Française’ stunning school in Vancouver. The four-storey 2,760 square metre mass timber and steel/mass timber hybrid is inviting and creates warmth throughout the building. The project team saved time by using prefabricated mass timber elements that arrived on site ready to be installed. The project came together to create a great learning environment for students and faculty to enjoy.

Our CLT Mod’s are flying this week! Check out these site progress photos from our first week of install in Montana. We are working with a great team on site, setting 10+ mods a day! There is a total of 120 mods to set for this three story building. Kalesnikoff

The Marpole Community Center located in Vancouver’s Westside, has been designed in collaboration with Sky Spirit Studio Inc., a Coast Salish intergenerational design practice. The design honours the area’s Indigenous history, and the xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm (Musqueam) Nation and Host Nation artwork and concepts have been meaningfully incorporated into the design. The project vision is to create a sustainable new community centre for the Marpole neighbourhood that will be a place to welcome and connect all people for generations to come. Kalesnikoff provided the glue-laminated timber (glulam) columns and beams, a cross-laminated timber (CLT) floor system, and roof decking. A key feature is the curved roof combining steel beams and CLT deck. Construction is targeting a 40% reduction in embodied carbon using mass timber and will achieve LEED™ Gold certification.
