A two-day training program with the theme of “Sino-Canadian Workshop on Technology of Prefabricated Building and Modern Wood-Frame Construction,” jointly organized by MOHURD, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) and BCFII, recently took place in Suzhou City, Jiangsu province.
The event highlighted WFC as an ideal solution in helping the Chinese government meet its green building and prefabrication targets, which is also in accordance with the country’s efforts to tackle climate change.
