This is the presentation by Architect Simon Ha, from Steinberg Architects, that accompanied a webinar discussing the following issues: Learn the design, economic, and policy issues in high-density multi-family housing design in podium (light wood frame over concrete) construction and high-rise construction. In many of our growing cities, there has been a proliferation of medium to high density housing production. The form of the new housing is typically five to seven stories with a mix of Type I concrete podium at the base and Type V or III light wood construction above. The webinar originally aired on 11/6/17
