With a time budget of only 10 months between Formula 1 racing seasons, mass timber was naturally the building material of choice for Montreal’s new Grand Prix Paddocks.
With a time budget of only 10 months between Formula 1 racing seasons, mass timber was naturally the building material of choice for Montreal’s new Grand Prix Paddocks. Equipped with its own photovoltaic plant, the Paddocks can accommodate 5,000 spectators as well as broadcasters and Formula 1 teams. It features a spectacular 300-meter diamondgrid, canopy-style roof made of 1,425 m³ of engineered wood.
The wooden covering provides shade to both the rooftop lounges and the loges area. It also harmonizes with the surrounding Parc Jean-Drapeau landscape. Prefabricated mass timber components were used that enabled both a short construction time and the potential to be easily dismantled and reconfigured in the future. It has won the 2018 the Award of Excellence by Canadian Architect and the Grand Prix d’Excellence 2020 from the Ordre des Architectes du Québec.
