From Custom to Production: Five Builders on Scaling Mass Timber Homes
Oregon Ballroom 204Moderator:
About the session...
North America builds 15,000 log homes annually, yet almost zero builders use mass timber at scale. Why? This panel brings together five builders from Washington to Ontario who are actually building single-family and townhome mass timber projects, some successfully, some only through extreme resilience, to answer that question.
Expect honest dialogue about what pencils and what doesn’t. No PowerPoint cheerleading. Just real project costs, supply chain gaps, installer challenges, and what went wrong on actual jobsites. Each panelist will issue one specific challenge to the audience: What must manufacturers, suppliers, code officials, and the industry change to move mass timber from boutique custom homes to production scale?
If you’re a homebuilder considering mass timber, or a supplier wondering why builders aren’t buying, this panel will bring the unvarnished truth about scaling residential mass timber, and the roadmap forward.
