33 The Opportunity for Midrise Wood Construction

34 The Ontario Context Ontario, particularly the GTA is dominated by single family homes Suburban expansion into agricultural, greenspace has reached its limits Ontario population set to grow by 36% over next 20 years to $17.8 M Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH) population set to more than double by 2031, to 11.5 million

35 New Trends Mid-Rise Construction Sustainable densification is the social, economic and environmental development of existing urban areas with higher density. Sustainable densification reduces the car-oriented sub-urban sprawl of many modern cities. The result is the creation of dense compact neighbourhoods, with local access to facilities and services, efficient infrastructure, provision of well used park space and social integration.

36 Mid-Rise Today January 1, 2015 Ontario City of Calgary January 1, 2015 Alternative solution Alberta legislature bill spring 2015 RBQ Mid-Rise Guide available Quebec National Code March projects design, under construction, constructed BC Ontario alone will have over 500 projects in 3-4 years

43 Systemized Construction? Minimize material waste in the factory and at site. Panelized Wood Systems Began domestic wall-panel manufacturing Evolved to Systemized Construction with integrated design of walls, floors & roofs. Pre-fabricate as much as possible to: Accelerate site construction. Ensure panels are tight, square, accurately framed, correct load-bearing, correctly nailed and exceptionally dry. Reduce wall compression (shrinkage) with precise materials. Optimize construction through integrated design. Designing the best alternatives for walls, floors, and roof. Reduce re-work : back-framing can be 15% of framing cost. Precise anchor and mechanical positioning.
