Timeless architecture for a sustainable future

Buildings contribute to an estimated 39% of global carbon emissions not only though direct energy use, but also through the energy intensive processes used to produce construction materials such as steel, cement and glass. Alternatively, forests are natural carbon sinks, absorbing and storing atmospheric carbon.

Working with an interdisciplinary team of 成人VR视频 researchers, as well as with private and public sector partners, BARN co-leads听Michael Jemtrud,听Kiel Moe, and听Salmaan Craig听(Peter Guo-hua Fu School of Architecture) aim to develop regional, carbon-negative approaches to construction, linking sustainable forestry with timber innovations.

With the goal of producing long-lived and resilient architecture, the team will explore ways to 鈥渄ecarbonize鈥� buildings and environments by making them less carbon-intensive to operate and by reducing the amount of carbon embodied in building materials, components, assemblies, buildings and communities.

The showcase BARN building, to be located on 成人VR视频鈥檚 Macdonald campus, will include laboratories for an interdisciplinary team of experts in energy, ecology, landscape, forestry, architecture, and construction. It will incorporate a state-of-the-art workshop for processing timber, and space for assembling and testing innovative building technologies at full scale.

The Mac campus site will also enable the team to use wood harvested sustainably from the听Morgan Arboretum听to be processed and used in the design and construction of novel buildings in the as part of the facility鈥檚 鈥渞esearch-develop-demonstrate workflow,鈥� says Professor Jemtrud. The large, interdisciplinary team capitalizes on the vast intellectual resources in the School of Architecture and in other Faculties and will train the next generation of professionals in carbon-neutral and climate resilient design.

Project Scope:

The project BARN is located on 成人VR视频 Mac Campus and includes the construction of a facility for experimental research in architecture and engineering with a focus on developing wood as a building material and decarbonization transformation of the built environment. As such, the research facility (made largely of timber) is the research infrastructure in itself.

Project Details:

Please read the following information carefully :

Sustainable Procurement

The businesses with which the University will contract with in the course of this project will have respect the听成人VR视频 Supplier Code of Conduct.

Other requirements may apply, such as (for example): the quantification and limiting of GHG emissions over the contract or asset lifecycle, sustainable construction/product certifications, involvement of indigenous businesses or of social economy businesses, design for circularity, and so on.
