Fieldtrip to KB Homes at Whittier

Great fieldtrip to the KB-Homes construction site in Whitter on April 14th. While the design of the homes is questionable to say the least, it gave us good insight into the SoCal housing market and into contemporary details of timber constructions. Note the use of strong-panels and the offset lateral force resisting system.

This 27-minute documentary film about the LA River by Sarah Lorenzen and David Hartwell is definitely worth watching.
