Designed using a hybrid mass timber approach\, the 1\,000+ bed\, 270\,000-square-foot residence hall demonstrates how mass timber and prefabrication can transform large-scale campus projects. \nIn this webinar\, project partners from WMU\, Hanbury\, The Christman Company\, and Britt\, Peters and Associates will share lessons learned from planning and delivering one of Michigan’s most innovative student housing developments. Panelists will discuss how mass timber helped accelerate construction timelines\, reduce embodied carbon\, and create healthier\, biophilic living environments while meeting aggressive budget and schedule goals. \nAttendees will gain insight into the design-build collaboration\, structural and engineering considerations\, and sustainability outcomes that make this project a replicable model for universities and large residential developments nationwide[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default”
