April 2022 Pro Tour showcased a 7-story mass timber CLT building, that at the time was under construction. Attendees learned about both the technical details of the project and about the highly collaborative approach that made this ambitious work possible.

The project is poised to become the first of its kind in the Boston area. Attendees toured the residences at the peak of construction, granting them a ‘behind-the-scenes’ look at this urban midrise. This building is built for PHIUS certification and will provide the neighborhood with 34 units of market-rate housing. The tour was co-hosted by Passive to Positive and Haycon Building LLC, who were joined by additional speakers from other contributing companies.

During the tour, the interdisciplinary speaker team discussed the project goals, design process, construction and materials, and mechanical systems. The project team was eager to share their lessons learned, including the process of coordinating MEP and structural systems in a mass timber structure.

Note: Attendees of this Pro Tour were required to be vaccinated against COVID. We were also require to wear masks when inside except when eating or drinking.
