“My name is Hemangi Chavan, and I am currently a graduate student pursuing a Master’s degree in Construction Management at Michigan State University. Under the guidance of Prof. George Berghorn, I am conducting research on mass timber materials and construction as part of my master’s thesis.
I would like to extend an invitation for you to participate in a brief survey that forms an integral part of my research. Your voluntary participation is of immense value, and your responses will be treated with the utmost confidentiality. The survey is designed to take approximately 15 minutes to complete and covers various aspects related to mass timber construction.
I want to emphasize that this survey is not a test of your knowledge but an opportunity for me to understand your perspectives and experiences in the field. There are no right or wrong answers, and your input is highly valued regardless of your level of expertise about mass timber.

Additionally, I have received 120 responses so far and need 400 more to reach my goal. I would greatly appreciate it if you could share this invitation within your network. The study caters to both academia and industry professionals within the AEC community, and your assistance in spreading the word is immensely appreciated.
Should you have any questions regarding the survey or my research, please feel free to reach out to me via email at chavanhe@msu.edu or direct message on LinkedIn.
Thank you sincerely for considering this invitation.”
