  • Applied sustainable forestry and sourcing (reclaimed lumber, design for deconstruction, local supply chain solutions)
  • Affordable housing and innovative delivery models
  • Seismic innovations for light-frame mid-rise buildings
  • Hybrid systems combining wood with steel or concrete
  • Prefab and modular applications (light-frame and mass timber)
  • Industry forecasting and economic viability studies
