When a two-alarm fire broke out at a large hotel, swift action was critical to minimizing damage and disruption. BMS CAT responded in under 45 minutes, arriving on-site to assess the situation and begin stabilizing the property. This immediate response helped protect the building from further loss.

That same night, the local BMS CAT team secured the site, laying the groundwork for a smooth transition to full restoration. By morning, BMS CAT’s National CAT (Catastrophe) division had deployed, bringing in the resources, equipment, and large-loss expertise needed to manage the complex recovery effort.

From securing the site to executing a complete restoration plan, BMS CAT worked closely with hotel management throughout the process. The mission was clear: restore the property to its original condition with minimal disruption to operations.

This incident highlights what BMS CAT does best: rapid response, coordinated teamwork, and expert-led recovery. By acting quickly and scaling efficiently, we help businesses recover from major losses faster and more effectively.

Whether it’s fire, flood, or another disaster, BMS CAT is always ready to restore commercial properties and critical infrastructure when it matters most.

HUD backs a 24-month study on mass-timber modules that ship and stack faster

HUD backs a 24-month study on mass-timber modules that ship and stack faster

HUD funded a 24-month Washington State University project on hybrid mass-timber modular housing. It targets transportability and faster site assembly. A 2023 Journal of Building Engineering review says 2D modular CLT tends to ship farther and build faster than 3D.

  • 01If transportation is the cost driver, HUD’s study plan points straight at the spec: treat the truck interface, tie-downs, and lifting points as part of the structural module design, not afterthought hardware.
  • 02The most actionable design fork in the CLT modular literature is 2D versus 3D: according to a 2023 Journal of Building Engineering review, 2D modules are typically moved longer distances and assembled faster on average.
  • 03Owners who want future change-of-use optionality can start writing it into module grids and connection details now. HUD-backed research is explicitly testing modules that can be repurposed across occupancies over their lifetime.
