CONCEPT                                  

      A (nearly) rigid connection between horizontal
      and vertical TJI's creates a strong path of
      travel for all loads (gravity, wind, seismic, etc.).
      Continuous steel rods at each wall to floor
      intersection hold the structure together.
      Plywood acts as a "skin" that is applied to
      the outside (or inside) surfaces of the entire
      structure to increase it's strength.

    Michael Kozel                            

      looks back on over 30 years of experience in
      architecture comprising the whole range from conceptual
      design through construction administration and project
      management. Since his days in architectural school
      Michael has been aware that building construction,
      compared to manufacturing and IT, is a rather immature
      industry. Therefore, from the beginning of his career,
      he has looked for ways to advance innovation and
      fundamental improvement in the building construction
      industry.
