I found the discussion to be really educational and it got me thinking what role specifications have in the product selection and construction of wall assemblies (and other 'systems' made up of multiple products too). What role should building codes play and do we need some type of oversight or 'rules' that dictate or monitor such an important part of the construction, rather than an 'industry led' approach to best practice? It seems pretty obvious to anyone that knows what they're looking at when driving past a jobsite, if shortcuts are being taken with the wall assembly. Shortcuts it would seem that aren't being caught or enforced by inspectors because they keep happening. Rules (in every aspect of life) are always written because of those that can't put the good of the people over the good of themselves. It's why we have Building Codes in the first place! Its difficult to blame everything on the GC who's incentivized by a system to cut costs and build as quickly as possible. So what's the solution? I'm interested to know from the spec writers out there... are you including manufacturer's full 3-part specifications in your projects? If you use your own templates or masters, how are you ensuring compatible products for assemblies are being selected and installed correctly to prevent failures later in the life of the building? To the contractors and tradies... how often do you refer back to the specification during construction of assemblies (do you even have access to the specification on the jobsite)? How much work is done based on your previous years of experience or an 'it's how we've always done it' sort of philosophy?

We work with builders, construction firms, public and private interest groups, and even individuals.👷♂️⁠ ⁠ We regularly assist with matters such as severances, easements, expropriations, private road agreements, subdivisions, variances, site plan agreements, and other agreements that need to be drafted and in place before a project can proceed.🚧⁠ ⁠ We assist our clients through all stages of a project, from initial planning and due diligence right down to the final sale. We appear on behalf of our clients before administrative tribunals, committees of adjustment, municipal councils, the Ontario Municipal Board, and courts at all levels. We’ll also help deal with heritage or landmark preservation issues, ensure that all codes are compliant, and provide counsel on other issues such as environmental impacts and licensing.⁠ ⁠ We’ll work with you to provide the strategic advice that you need for your project at a fraction of the cost and a fraction of the drive.⁠ ⁠ ~ Will⁠

It was a pleasure to host students from the University of Denver earlier this month. Supporting the education of the next generation not only broadens their minds but also boosts the economy and enhances community safety. The labor shortage remains one of the biggest challenges facing our industry and will likely persist for at least the next decade. We are focusing on mitigating the impact of this ongoing shortfall. #dlcohencc #huroncomponents #offsiteconstruction #manufacturing #productivity #quality #multifamilyconstruction #construction #components #multifamilycommunity #Denverconstruction #production #design #futureofconstruction
