Mass Timber & the Future of Prefabrication & Offsite Construction
Sam Dicke
Manager of Client Development
Timberlab
Timberlab, a mass timber manufacturer and design assist partner, has been pushing the boundaries of prefabrication and offsite construction since their inception in 2017 when they worked on First Tech Federal Credit Union’s headquarters in Oregon. At the time, the project was the largest mass timber building in North America. Timberlab took a leap backwards in the supply chain in 2020, opening a fabrication and offsite facility in Portland and expanding operations nationwide with the opening of a South Carolina headquarters in 2023. In 2024, Timberlab acquired a large glulam manufacturer and in 2025 broke ground on their massive 200,000 square foot state-of-the-art cross laminated timber facility in Oregon. Timberlab has completed over 65 projects in 22 states across the US. Join Sam Dicke, Timberlab’s manager of client development, for a discussion on the importance of design coordination, manufacturing connection, and offsite assembly integration to deliver a successful mass timber project.

Likewise, Terner Labs—founded to complement the work of the Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley—is helping scale real-world answers to some of the most pressing housing challenges anywhere. Tyler Pullen serves as senior technical advisor at Terner Labs and will talk about how offsite construction methods reduce the time and cost of construction while increasing the supply of affordable housing. He will also elaborate on regulatory challenges facing housing delivery, tools for policy decision-making, efforts to spur innovation and modernize construction methods, and opportunities for impactful intervention.
