Overview of off-site construction with insights on prefabrication benefits, design coordination, code compliance, and addressing common constraints.

Join WoodWorks and prefab panel supplier, Ron Anderson + Sons, as they discuss strategies for navigating the world of off-site construction, explaining the challenges and benefits of prefabrication and how they impact the design and construction process. Learn about different strategies for navigating code compliance and coordinating with a prefabricated component supplier.  The discussion will also cover common constraints like high seismic forces and high efficiency envelopes and how to address these with off-site construction.

This one-hour presentation will provide a deeper understanding of the off-site construction process and its implications for your role in designing and constructing wood buildings.

Learning Outcomes:

• Learn when off-site construction can deliver cost and schedule savings.

• Learn how to ensure design coordination and specifications align with project requirements and prefabricated component supplier constraints.

• Learn how construction strategies and detailing are affected when using prefabricated components and how to ensure successful project outcomes.
