Mass Timber Construction Podcast Special Guests - Steve Clem and Tym - Skanska Sustainable Construction

Skanska work makes a clear contribution to society and the
environment around them. Whether they are building schools to
provide inspiring spaces for learning, roads to connect
communities or hospitals to care for patients, it all contributes
to their purpose – they build what matters. Skanska Group uses
knowledge & foresight to shape the way people live, work, and
connect. More than 135 years in the making, they’re one of the
world’s largest development and construction companies, with 2020
revenue totalling SEK 159 billion. They operate in select markets
throughout the Nordics, Europe and the United States. Together
with our customers and the collective expertise of our 32,000+
teammates, we create innovative and sustainable solutions that
support healthy living beyond our lifetime. 

In this special guest episode I speak with Steve Clem who is the
Senior Vice President- Project Planning Services and Tym who is
the Mass Timber Superintendent at Skanska, both are based in
Portland, Oregon. We discuss the changes to global construction
as mass timber becomes more prominent across the planet. We also
discuss the nature of changes in reporting for sustainable
construction, and  how the impacts of the EU (through the
Swedish HQ) are driving a different agenda in North America and
beyond. A highlight is the discussion of the emergence of carbon
accounting through tools like EC3 and LCA.  Please enjoy my
conversation with Steve and Tym.
