Fall 2022
Mass Timber Design/Fab/Build Workshop

October 27 - 29, 2022

The prefabrication and rapid construction advantages of mass timber buildings are made possible by digital design and manufacturing technologies that represent new skill sets for many mass timber manufacturing companies. The Mass Timber Design/Fab/Build Workshop is a small-group, three-day intensive workshop dedicated to exploring and experiencing these methods and technologies through an extensive and highly interactive timber building project.

Fall 2021
Mass Timber Design/Fab/Build Workshop

November 4 - 6, 2021

The prefabrication and rapid construction advantages of mass timber buildings are made possible by digital design and manufacturing technologies that represent new skill sets for many mass timber manufacturing companies. The Mass Timber Design-Build Workshop is a small-group, three-day intensive workshop dedicated to exploring and experiencing these methods and technologies through an extensive and highly interactive timber-building project.

Introduction to CADwork - Virtual Workshop Series

September 14 - October 7, 2021

This two-day workshop will introduce participants to basic computer-aided-design tasks using the CAD work software application for the design of mass timber building components and structures. This course is intended for employees of mass timber manufacturing firms as well as designers, architects, construction managers, and builders who wish to use CAD work to create 3D models, 2D construction drawings, material takeoffs, optimization of takeoffs and schedules, and/or renderings for sales and marketing purposes.
