Though built as one of the largest mass timber projects in the country, the 156,000-sq-ft First Tech Federal Credit Union corporate office was erected in a relatively short time. Thanks to prefabrication, the glulam and cross laminated timber (CLT) building was assembled by a crew of eight in just 12 weeks once material arrived on site.
Swinerton项目主管William Silva说：“预制使我们能够比常规建筑快四个月，便宜4％。”
该团队说，大众木材被选为混凝土和钢的结构系统，因为其财务和日程安排优势以及其生物质量。五层楼的LEED金建筑位于公园中间。业主希望木材框架设计为员工促进健康和舒适感，同时带来自然光线并模糊室内和室外环境之间的界限。
席尔瓦说，尽管大规模木材已在欧洲和加拿大广泛使用，但直到该项目之前，它尚未以成本效益的基础实施。他说：“第一技术是一项原型，目的是在当今的项目上以具有成本效益的方式打破大众木材实施的障碍。”18luck官网
Because CLT is new to the building code, there are no tested assemblies for fireproofing wood-to-steel connections. Scott Barton-Smith, associate principal with Hacker Architects, says the design team had to propose it to the city as an alternative that, although not written into the code, was structurally capable.
巴顿·史密斯（Barton-Smith）说：“最大的挑战之一是与制造商和代码顾问一起编写工程判断，以表明我们正在设计的连接满足了《守则》的意图出于火灾评级的目的。”“我们必须插入不同来源的信息来编写工程判断。”
