Mass timber is emerging as a key component of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) across Atlantic Canada, offering opportunities to accelerate project delivery, improve sustainability outcomes, and support regional economic development. However, successful implementation requires more than material selection — it demands practical knowledge across design, manufacturing, logistics, procurement, and construction.
This presentation explores the “know-how” behind delivering mass timber projects in Atlantic Canada. The session will examine key considerations such as early-stage coordination, prefabrication strategies, transportation and erection planning, hybrid structural systems, and code and compliance pathways.
Attendees will gain insight into where mass timber provides the greatest value, the challenges unique to Atlantic Canada, and how project teams can successfully adopt modern construction approaches to improve speed, efficiency, and project outcomes.
