👋𝐖𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 #𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐨𝐟𝐟? 👉 Here's what 1000+ #AEC & #Developer teams said they needed from the industry. We talked to A LOT of people this year leading up to the 2024 MTG Summit. Some were industry leaders, some had a few projects under their belt. Many were just getting started. ❓Why does this matter❓ Want more #masstimber buildings? We need more #masstimber practitioners. That means helping AEC & Developer teams get the resources they need to participate. 👉 We identified the most common requests by profession AND the #1 answer shared by all. ✅ So, what do they need? ✅ Based on those 1000+ conversations, and direct feedback from 262 Summit attendees, here's what we found. 𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒 We found a fairly even mix between teams looking to get started, and teams looking to improve upon their existing experience and knowledge. ✅ Basic information to get started, and advanced knowledge on best practices around design/detail strategies and pricing practicalities were the most common requests. 𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐄𝐑𝐒 The engineers we spoke with were the most up-to-speed profession on #masstimber. ✅ They were interested in the latest trends, advancements and solutions to common problems. Code, costs, cores, connections, & in-depth technical content were most cited. 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 Most of these teams were looking at if/how to fold #masstimber into their businesses. ✅ Market trends and state of the industry were highly referenced. Nuances of working with mass timber and best practices to be successful were a close second (particularly in housing applications). 𝐃𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐋𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐑/𝐎𝐖𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐒 Public and private sector developers had similar learning objectives. ✅ Notably but perhaps unsurprisingly, risk management (procurement & nuances) and cost/viability stood out. Housing applications were a focal point of the Summit, and these teams were highly interested in the economics of private market pro-forma driven feasibility. ✋ But all these teams had 1 overwhelmingly common request ✋ 👉 A community of like-minded people to engage with and learn from. 👉 It was the #1 response in every single category. What's our takeaway? Community building and engagement will help with every requested area. Creating spaces to teach, learn and connect are important for recruiting new teams into the #masstimbermovement. That’s what these teams are looking for. That's what we as an industry need to support. 👉 We're giving it our best shot with this annual event, our podcast & newsletter. If you want to be involved, visit the links on our page. And if you couldn't make the Summit this year, check out this video recap to see what it's all about. - Nic Wilson & Brady Potts
