LOCAL PRODUCTION The wood used for the beams , in the form of glued and crosslaminated ( CLT ), as well as for the decking , in the form of crosslaminated , comes from northern Quebec and values species and small pieces of wood to optimize the fiber of all the trees during the cutting . The precast concrete parts come from a Quebec company , as are the curtain walls and the steel structure . The division into several separate batches of the structure ( concrete , steel and Wood ) allowed the simultaneous production in the factory of colossal quantities of material as well as their erection in a very limited period of time and despite a harsh winter .
