In an effort to bring awareness to building practitioners and government about the growing prevalence of “high-performance” prefabrication for single family and low-to-medium-rise multifamily construction in B.C. (and especially in the Kootenay-Columbia Region), Collective Carpentry is hosting an educational and networking event Sept. 12 to help accelerate the adoption of sustainable, cost-effective solutions to the housing crisis.

Join us for a half-day event (11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.) exploring how off-site construction is transforming high-performance homebuilding—and how the Columbia Valley is helping lead the way.

The symposium is for developers, architects, builders, engineers, government, realtors, lenders and curious citizens.
