About the session...

Mass timber projects demand a high level of coordination, precision, and teamwork between general contractors and erectors. In hybrid projects, that complexity grows as teams must manage multiple structural systems, such as mass timber and steel, working together seamlessly. This panel brings together construction leaders from two large-scale projects to share real-world insights on planning, execution, and lessons learned. The moderated discussion will focus on the multi-phase, multi-dimensional management required to successfully deliver complex mass timber projects. Panelists will also highlight the risks, challenges, and unexpected successes they encountered, offering practical takeaways for project teams. Attendees will gain candid perspectives on what works, what to avoid, and how GCs and erectors can build stronger partnerships to deliver efficient, safe, and high-quality mass timber projects.
