Mass Timber Market Updates - Mar 2022 - Week Twelve

In this episode, in the fall of 2017, Sidewalk Labs, a subsidiary
of Google’s parent company, Alphabet Inc., announced a deal in
Toronto to build a dream city “from the Internet up”, however
some argue that dream was nothing more than some pretty pictures.
After just a single visit to Australia, UK-based James Jones
& Sons decided to buy a 60 per cent stake in Australian
timber companies XLam and Hyne Timber. Winner in the Experimental
Future Projects category in the World Architecture Festival 2021,
SAWA – designed by Mei Architects and Planners – is Rotterdam’s
first 50-meter-high residential building and it was developed
with the goal to prove that humans can live and build in a
sustainable way. Designed by CS&P Architects Inc., the Glulam
beam and steel structure is being built by construction manager
Percon Construction Inc. and is intended to improve the quality
of recreational services to meet population growth and changing
demographics in the area. Paul Kremer talks with Christina
Wijeratne about the Clean Energy Finance Corporation and how it
is seeking to transform Australia's approach to large-scale
building construction, with a new $300 million program to
encourage mass timber construction across the property
sector.  The International Mass Timber Conference is only
two weeks away! Get your tickets now.
