It’s clear that achieving consistency in product dimensions, performance, and testing protocols is essential for driving down costs and accelerating construction timelines.

I’m curious about the potential role of government regulations and incentives in fostering product standardization within the mass timber industry. Could you elaborate on the specific policies or programs that could be implemented to encourage manufacturers to adopt standardized practices?
