In this informative video, we talk to ISA Certified Arborist Corey Herpel, a professional in the field of tree services, to address some commonly asked questions about stump grinding and stump removal.

Corey explains the key differences between the two procedures. Stump grinding, he describes, is a process that gets rid of the visible trunk and surface roots. It will seem like the tree was never there. Stump removal, on the other hand, is more comprehensive. It’s often an unnecessary procedure that involves the removal of the root ball and most of the tree’s biomass.

The conversation delves into when each procedure might be necessary. For the majority of situations, stump grinding is sufficient. However, there are certain circumstances, such as large-scale building projects requiring significant soil stability and compaction, where more of the root mass needs to be removed.

HUD’s 24-month mass timber modular project goes after the cost driver: shipping the modules

HUD’s 24-month mass timber modular project goes after the cost driver: shipping the modules

HUD is funding a 24-month Washington State University project to redesign modular housing modules around transport and fast site assembly. Shipping is the design constraint. A 2023 Journal of Building Engineering review of 2009–2021 modular CLT projects suggests faster construction timelines, but logistics choices still decide feasibility.

  • 01In modular housing, transportation is becoming a first-order engineering spec, the module that is cheapest to build can still be the most expensive to move.
  • 02The 2023 review found 2D modular CLT projects were, on average, transported farther and built faster than 3D ones, so configuration choice shapes both transport reach and install time.

Insurance and moisture controls now dictate mass timber schedules

Insurance and moisture controls now dictate mass timber schedules

Mass timber can go up as little as one day per floor. But builder’s risk and property insurance can be harder to place and pricier, largely tied to moisture exposure during construction. Metropolis says mass timber is mainstreaming across North America.

  • 01The schedule advantage is real, but it is only bankable if the project has a funded moisture-control plan from mill to dry-in.
  • 02Insurance has become an early design input for mass timber, forcing owners to lock in risk controls and documentation before procurement.
  • 03For mid-rise and campus projects, mass timber’s headline benchmark is cycle time per floor, which shifts schedule risk onto crane picks, staging, moisture protection, and inspection windows.
