Ever watched a mass timber budget skyrocket because a minor grid shift triggered endless rework? How about the chaotic site logistics that arise when erection sequence isn’t dialed in?
Early collaboration on DfMA strategies sets the tempo for smooth site coordination, faster schedules, and fewer RFIs. Kevin Rocchi from Element5 breaks down how locking grid lines, nailing slab extents, and clarifying load paths help architects and engineers avoid costly uncertainty. He also shares a behind-the-scenes look at their new glulam line, advanced scanning tech, and the best practices for mass timber project success. For AEC professionals chasing tighter margins, the key takeaway is predictability: fewer unknowns, better sequencing, shorter install windows, and a more attractive ROI for developers. Clear expectations and timely responses feed a virtuous cycle—one in which mass timber can consistently hit budget and schedule targets.
