Insuring Tall Timber Buildings

Insurance plays a critical role for any construction project. It particularly plays a key role in the adoption of mass timber systems in mid-rise and high-rise development. In this episode we're lucky to be speaking with Jacob Concannon a Vice President at Gallagher, who are a global insurance broker who are creating awareness and education about mass timber through the insurance sector. In this episode we discuss the current state of play with mass timber and insurance and how things can be improved to streamline adoption moving forward.
