According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition, the U.S. faces a shortage of 7 million affordable homes and rentals. And the project team behind Timberview VIII, an eight-story, affordable housing development, believes our industry can help change that number by introducing a sustainable and innovative material option – mass timber. Next week, attendees of the International Mass Timber Conference in Portland will get a firsthand look at this milestone project; but you can check it out right now by clicking our feature short film, “The Good Project.” And be sure to check out our last video where DCI Principal, Shirley Chalupa, PE, SE, walked us through the engineering decisions behind Timberview VIII, along with our project partners’ channels for their individual takes on this amazing project. https://lnkd.in/gnmQachX The Timberview VIII Project Team: Owner - Curtis Rystadt Structural Engineers - DCI Engineers Architect - Access Architecture General Contractor - Truebeck Construction Mass Timber Installer - Carpentry Plus, Inc.

If you're attending the NCSEA Structural Engineering Summit this week, I invite you to join Michael Lyons, SE, LFA and myself present on "Design Criteria and Design Constraints for Sustainability and Embodied Carbon" this Friday at 9:45am. As embodied carbon-related regulations and sustainability goals evolve rapidly in our industry, structural engineers need to understand how this affects the way we specify and source materials. I hope to see you there!

Opened ahead of the new academic year, the University of Montana’s new Dining Services facility, The Lodge, serves the campus community as an adaptable space for dining, socialization, and study. This 44,000-sf, two-story structural steel-framed building utilizes concentrically braced frames for lateral resistance and features seven “mini-restaurants” capable of serving nearly a thousand diners each day both indoors and on its two outdoor dining decks. #DCIEngineers #DCIDesign #DCIMissoula #DCIMontana #UniversityofMontana #HigherEducation #StructuralEngineering #StructuralEngineer SMA Architecture + Design, P.C. and NAC, Matt Schmidt, SE, PE, PEng, Tim Vaughan, PE, SE
