Learning Units: 14.00-Entry level

Training Units: 3.50-Training Area 17 (Energy Conservation)

Our industry is changing swiftly, in response to a range of natural, cultural, and economic forces. Trends in design tools, building technology, construction delivery models, and sustainable practice are converging toward a common path. This two-day conference will provide a well-rounded exploration of the application of building information modeling (BIM) related technologies, integrated project delivery, advanced design, and building technologies to achieve sustainable practices. Visit www.aiaconvention.com for information on tracks, plenary sessions, and HSW qualification. Breakfast and lunch are included.

Learning Objectives:
  • Identify and compare new approaches to building design and integrated project delivery methods supporting sustainability
  • Evaluate systems, material, and construction alternatives for their ecological impact and demonstrate the value of sustainable design to architects, owners, and the public
  • Develop collaborative teams and use new technologies to produce cutting-edge sustainable design results
Providers: AIA Center for Building Science and Performance, AIA Committee on the Environment, AIA Integrated Practice, and AIA Technology in Architectural Practice
