Tall Timber Student Housing at BCIT w/Jamie Pobre Sullivan of Fast + Epp
Description
What makes hybrid mass timber a game-changer in construction, and how can innovative structural design accelerate schedules while reducing carbon footprints? Join structural engineer Jamie P. Sullivan as she discusses the groundbreaking 12-story BCIT student housing tower, a hybrid mass timber project that blends cross-laminated timber (CLT), steel columns, and prefab components to deliver sustainability, speed, and superior design.
Learn how strategic material decisions, moisture management, and construction planning enabled faster construction without sacrificing quality. Jamie also highlights the future of hybrid designs in hospitality and social housing and why mass timber is more than just a material—it's part of a smarter, integrated building solution.
