“the design idea came from racking industrial racking”
“if you're a gc you're thinking i need less subs on site”
“construction generates 30 to 40 percent of our landfill waste because we perpetually build demolish”
“drywall is paint over paper over chalk it doesn't stand up to high traffic”
“we now have one project in antarctica at a research center”
// LESSONS FROM Falkbuilt Ltd.
Cross-disciplinary industry associations generate more government leverage than siloed trade groups by speaking with one unified voice.
Pandemic downtime is a strategic window for associations and firms to finish long-deferred planning work that gets crowded out in busy periods.
Opening a closed membership model to the broader industry is a growth multiplier for industry associations that had relied on a rotating board.
Off-site prefabrication of interior partitions compresses schedules and reduces on-site labour demand — a compounding advantage as trades shortages worsen.
Pre-wiring electrical into prefab wall panels eliminates a whole sub-trade mobilisation and accelerates the MEP rough-in sequence.
Canadian-made supply chains with contractually locked pricing are a genuine differentiator in a market experiencing material price volatility.
