This regional in-person program combines a technical seminar with an exclusive tour of the 25-story Ascent tower in Milwaukee. The technical presentation examines early design choices that shape large-scale mass timber projects, including building code construction types, structural grid layouts, fire-resistance approaches, acoustics, and connection details. Participants then walk through the 284-foot timber structure with development team members to inspect real-world integration of MEP services and structural components. The event concludes with on-site networking, providing architects and engineers with practical guidance on constructability, cost, and code compliance.
