World's Tallest Wooden Skyscaper Takes Shape in Milwaukee. For the second time this decade Milewaukee will host of the world's tallest timber skycraper. At a height of 182.88m/ 600ft, the as yet unnamed 55 story tower will be part of the "Marcus Performing Arts Center renovations and overseen by MGA | Michael Green Architecture." The previous tallest wooden tower was the 25 story Ascent Tower. For the new building, "MGA will rely on much stronger options like glulam (a type laminated timber) and cross-laminated timber (CLT) that are specifically designed to withstand stress, moisture, and other environmental pressures." Housing 750 housing units, 300 hotel rooms, retail space and parking, the timber building will have a better environmental footprint than steel and concrete and be more fire resistant than modern alternatives. Part of the worldwide wooden skycraper/ timber building and decarbonizing construction trends.

"While mass timber is being built as a viable alternative to mid rise urban structures, here its use is aesthetic, a neat showpiece as the rest of this building (shorter than many of the other actual mass timber structures) is built as a standard steel-and-concrete building." https://lnkd.in/dtbRgv4Y

Repost from Chris Reebals: "It is the light, it is the shade, it is the view, and the way it connects a home with its surroundings. Windows and natural light are more than just important, they are the life-blood. We design with window that don’t just penetrate a wall but become the wall. I’ve never been criticized for too much light!" . . . #blackstoneconstruction #blackstone #birminghamal #birmingham #alabama #commericalconstruction #commerical #construction #residentialconstruction #residential #architecture #blackstonebuilt #constructionindustry #buildingdesign #contractors #constructionwork #propertydevelopment #constructionsite #renovation #constructionlife #buildingsolutions #constructionmanagement

What’s the secret to designing a parking structure in challenging environments? The Emery Station West V Garage in Emeryville, CA, demonstrates effective problem-solving. Our five-story post-tension concrete design incorporates a hybrid moment frame and shear wall system. To tackle high water table issues, GPLA has implemented an extended mat foundation that avoids deep piles, keeping costs manageable. Additionally, we’re incorporating a bioretention swale with decorative plants for enhanced aesthetics. The focus remains on maximizing parking capacity while aligning with architectural goals. #StructuralEngineering #Sustainability #DesignBuild #DPR

The Church at Woodforest is a new build community-focused church in Montgomery, TX. It includes a multi-use facility with a worship center, gymnasium, children's space, and commons area. Its #facade features Patina and Construction high-density #fibercement panels which were chosen for their durability, aesthetic appeal, and ability to adapt to variable weather conditions. Built to stand the test of time, these panels rarely require refurbishment or material replacement, reducing the building’s overall maintenance costs. In addition, the ventilated and insulated #rainscreen #cladding system used to affix them to the facade provides many benefits and green attributes, including resistance to moisture and mold.
