As opportunities to use Heavy and Mass Timber in construction surge, contractors, developers and designers need to understand how best to estimate costs. Designs with these materials vary greatly from frame construction and require different approaches to costing the structural elements as well as determining the whole building costs which incorporate electrical, mechanical, plumbing and envelope components. This series brings experienced designers, manufacturers, installation trades, developers and general contractors together to share their knowledge with their colleagues. If you're contemplating building or bidding on a building using these innovative materials, this series will provide essential informational about the Tips, Tricks and Traps of costing wood buildings.
