Why it matters: Point-supported CLT systems promise more efficient layouts and material use—especially in multi-unit residential. But without codified design methods, they’ve remained a niche solution.
Key outcomes:
- 3-storey building with full factory-finished modules
- CLT and glulam structure designed for fast, repeatable assembly
- 3D clash-free modeling of all systems before fabrication
- Optimized panel layouts and logistics for rapid site delivery
Why it matters: The project addresses both the speed and durability demands of remote workforce housing.Early collaboration between the owner, fabricator (Kalesnikoff), and designer ensured precision across the build.
