Vaagen Timbers’ Post

Timely post by our pioneering colleague Russ Vaagen @ Vaagen Timbers - Mass Timber for datacenters and light industrial. I'll add that also considering a hybrid steel / timber solution will expand opportunities in the sector even further. Russ also shares a couple important soundbites about the connection to our forests - this continues to be an under represented piece of the Mass Timber story and we can't do any of this without healthy forests. That's why many of our presentations are titled "Tree to Key". Onward & Upward!

Did you know that mass timber is a game-changer when it comes to reducing carbon emissions and lessening our environmental impact? Unlike traditional building materials, mass timber sequesters carbon rather than emitting it, making it a powerhouse for eco-friendly construction. Embracing mass timber means building a greener future for generations to come! #DesigningTomorrowToday⁠

There is no disputing that the adoption of mass timber indicates a noteworthy shift towards sustainable construction and lower carbon emissions, but what is the catch? Read about the lessons we've learned along the way in our blog post from The Point. >> https://bit.ly/3wrP6fR #T3 #MassTimber

Have you heard about mass timber? It’s a new sustainable building material that could significantly decrease emissions in the construction industry ➡️ https://lnkd.in/e6uEwtmT Learn how we have become a leading authority in the U.S. on both the opportunities and risks associated with mass timber. And how we are helping to grow the mass timber market, which could play a key role in decarbonizing the building industry and helping our customers achieve #NetZero emissions. #ZurichMissionZero #MassTimber

This technology stands out as one of the most innovative advancements we've seen in recent years. It immediately brings to mind many costly and complex projects where, instead of tearing down and redoing concrete work, this solution could provide a highly efficient, low-cost alternative. The potential to streamline processes, reduce expenses, and improve overall project timelines is immense, making it a game-changer in industries where concrete is a primary material.

Designing a space with disassembly in mind offers two-fold benefits. Using a modular construction system allows parts and pieces to be reconfigured without extensive raw material use. And if the building does reach the end of its life cycle, removing those elements that have been designed for disassembly becomes that much easier, reducing labor and increasing the possibility of recycling.

We believe that extending the lifespan of our machines is great not just for our customers, but for the planet. That’s why our machines are built to last another generation.
