RESERVE YOUR AD TODAY! Dear Construction Industry Member, Construction Business magazine is delighted to once again publish a Construction Directory 2025 for launch in January 2025. The

National Guidelines for Whole-Building Life Cycle Assessment, produced by the National Research Council of Canada (NRC), provides comprehensive instruction for the practice of life cycle assessment.

Increasingly these schools are being built with locally supplied wood products and advanced hybrid-mass timber prefabricated construction.

FPInnovations’ 2022 edition of its Technical Guide for the Design and Construction of Tall Wood Buildings in Canada is available.

The Building Information Modelling (BIM) for Wood Buildings: An Introductory Guide is by SCIUS Advisory and BIM One.

British Columbia’s construction sector is looking for ways to change from a ‘take-make-waste’ approach to a more circular economy.

Communities are looking to mass timber as a solution that can cut carbon while delivering safe, resilient structures.

From improved indoor air quality to student-centred design, now more than ever, the architecture of schools is under scrutiny.

This research focuses on how to design and build NZER wood-framed, multi-unit residential buildings (MURBs) as cost-effectively as possible.

Tatras sees huge potential for engineered netting systems to be deployed across Canada such as on bridge rehabilitation projects.

Wood industrial buildings are nothing new. Wood construction is a viable, economical alternative for the industrial development sector.

Wood, Well-being and Performance: The Human and Organizational Benefits of Wood Buildings by by Dr. Graham Lowe looks at biophilic design.

The report Four-Storey Wood School Design in British Columbia: An Analysis of Structural System Cost Comparisons looks at framing options.

Climate change and its associated effects may be a global challenge, but B.C. municipalities are taking action to reduce its impacts.

With the increasing number of prefabricated, modular timber projects being built, innovations in digital design tools offer many benefits.

Tourist attractions and visitor centres throughout B.C. have drawn inspiration from the natural environment, with abundant use of wood.

Mass timber is the next big step in green buildings. The benefits of mass timber include its ease of construction and light carbon footprint.
