The project includes the renovation and expansion of a top University Gymnasium, which was originally built in the 1940s. The renovated and expanded facility will support the growing need for campus recreation and wellness, and offer easier access for disabled students and/or staff.
For Phase 1 of this project, the existing wood walls from the squash courts were reclaimed and reused to create the tabletops for harvest tables and ottomans. The reclaimed wood was carefully denailed and reglued by The Challenge Program, based in Wilmington, Delaware. The steel bases for these pieces were fabricated by our miscellaneous metal subcontractor and provided to The Challenge Program for final assembly. The Challenge Program’s mission is to provide vocational training to Delaware’s youth, empowering them with the confidence, skills, and purpose needed to become productive members of society. Additionally, to support The Challenge Program’s mission, excess wood was donated by Skanska to help inner-city youth learn the trade.

This project is a multi-year transformation program of MARTA’s Five Points Station to reconstruct the plaza levels (one street level and 3 underground levels), including a new canopy, improved wayfinding, and public spaces with the least amount of risk to MARTA and its patrons. Exterior improvements include a community garden, pedestrian grove, playfield and terraced seating area, creating a new and inviting urban space above the station.
New 32,000-SF mass timber canopy over the entire station, which combined with a 10,000-SF skylight, reduces significantly the need to rely on lighting or air conditioning.
Skanska provided preconstruction and construction management services on the 18,500-SF two-story office building that connects Middle Tennessee's leading charities to funding and nonprofit support. The new office building is located on a six-acre brownfield site with 52 parking spaces. The project includes a two-story main office which consists of meeting spaces offices and a reception area.
The project features Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) as the basis of design for the wall, floor, roof panels, glulam beams columns and stairs.
Skanska built this 36,978-SF fully certified Living Building Challenge v3.1 project on the Georgia Institute of Technology campus. This project is a sustainability-focused facility supporting Georgia Tech's overarching goal to demonstrate a viable net-positive "urban" sustainable building in the Southeast. The facility, designed by the team of Lord Aeck Sargent and the Miller Hull Partnership, supports a dynamic education experience, a robust research platform and a public forum for community outreach.
The design included panels made of nail-laminated timber decking built from alternating lengths of lumber—2x4” and 2x6”—to make an eye-catching pattern. Skanska recovered 25,000 linear feet of 2x4s from old movie sets and used them to these panels, fulfilling the renewable materials requirement and saved money for our customer.
A hub for innovation, exploration and ideation, Shiley-Marcos Center for Design and Innovation emerges as a model of inspiration to cultivate invention and discovery in academia and to create industry collaborations. The project is targeting LEED® Gold certification.
The University has been an early adopter and pioneer of mass timber, and the Shiley-Marcos Center for Design & Innovation is among the first structures on campus to use cross-laminated timber (CLT). The Center’s roof comprises 38 CLT panels sourced from British Columbia, Canada, which required heavy coordination between trades to integrate it with the desired finished look. Legend Custom Woodworking was enlisted to fill in gaps of penetrating steel structure using species, grain and color-matched wood sourced from the same forest to infill the CLT panel penetrations. To the naked eye, it is nearly impossible to notice the meticulously hand-cut inlays that have been added.
Skanska’s approach to mass timber construction is an exercise in thoughtfulness, creativity, diligent planning and waste control. Mass timber is advertised as faster or cheaper than other construction techniques. In our experience, significant early coordination is required to achieve these benefits. By coordinating closely with designers and suppliers early in the project, we can proactively reduce and eliminate production and installation delays.

This project included an academic and physical education building with a gymnasium—purpose-designed to support ASL/bilingual education—will transform the campus and serve as the new “front door” to the community. Scope included site improvements, parking, a new school entrance and landscaping. CDHY’s commitment to sustainable design and innovative mass timber construction creates an inclusive and inspiring environment for students.
The hall incorporates glue-laminated (glulam) timber for columns and beams, while the roof structure and floors utilize three-ply cross-laminated (CLT) timber. The team wanted the fiber in the CLT to match the columns and beams and therefore, all timber is of Douglas fir. The connections were also designed to accommodate various depth beams while still limiting the overall depth and size of the glulam column structurally required.

Beautiful, functional and more
Mass timber has many potential benefits. Each project is unique and needs a trusted partner experienced in its intricacies. Skanska assists design teams in prioritizing and maximizing value.
Aesthetics
Mass timber may be left unfinished—a purposeful choice that adds a rustic, natural and even streamlined look, while eliminating added costs such as wall finishes. The aesthetic nature of wood allows for unique architectural designs to stand out in building interiors and exteriors.
Flexibility
Wood isn’t the answer for every structural design, especially below grade or complex geometries. But the wide array of engineered wood products provides a broad palette of ways to incorporate mass timber into most every project.
Fire Resistance
Despite being made of a combustible material, mass timber projects are engineered to be fire resistant to 1-hr and 2-hr ratings identical to steel and concrete. A natural char layer develops that protects the remaining wood from damage.
Sustainability
Building with mass timber—when compared to concrete or steel—reduces a structure’s carbon footprint because wood is a lower carbon material. Additionally, mass timber is a renewable resource that can be sourced locally from sustainably managed forests, reducing vehicle miles traveled.
Construction Time
It’s much safer, quicker and cost effective to have any openings or notches cut in the controlled factory environment than performing the work onsite. With field cutting eliminated, further work simply requires mechanical, electrical and plumbing subcontractors on site to place the ducting, electrical cables and other items.
Speed to Market
Using mass timber in buildings can speed up the construction schedule because it requires less labor, equipment and tools on the jobsite. The wood can be detailed, designed and prefabricated in an offsite shop, so when it’s delivered to the site, workers are simply linking pieces together.
Weather
Like most construction materials, mass timber requires protection from the elements prior to the building being enclosed. With a water mitigation plan, moisture testing and proper paints and sealants, it can be installed in any season. Light sanding or pressure washing will put the final touch on any exposed elements.
Mass timber is seismically sound and resilient, it is cost-effective, and it is one of the most sustainable and easily replenished materials to utilize.
Mass timber can be sourced locally from sustainably managed forests, reducing vehicle miles traveled. A shorter transportation route reduces carbon emissions.
