Webinar: Framework For Success: Prefabricated Wood Systems and Design Innovation

Speed, cost, and sustainability are no longer “nice to haves” in multi-residential construction — they’re essential.

Join WoodWorks in partnership with the Ontario Structural Wood Association (OSWA) for FRAMEWORK for Success: Prefabricated Wood Systems and Design Innovation, a 60-minute webinar exploring how panelized light wood frame systems are reshaping mid-rise housing delivery.

This session takes a deep dive into VanMar’s FRAMEWORK methodology and its real-world application on the 150 Wissler Road project in Waterloo — demonstrating how offsite prefabrication can accelerate timelines, control costs, and meet ambitious energy and GHG targets.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this session:

• Participants will understand the benefits of prefabricated wood frame construction for multi-residential buildings.
• Participants will understand the FRAMEWORK system’s approach to speed, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability.
• Participants will be shown how collaborative offsite construction methods accelerated the 150 Wissler Road project.
• Participants will learn strategies for overcoming design challenges and achieving efficiencies in fire walls, shafts, and acoustics.
