Concrete Innovations Learning Center is designed to bring practitioners, researchers and policy makers together to exchange the latest innovations for sustainable concrete design, construction and manufacturing.

A free, online educational event that provides a series of how-to information and studies the successful integration of smart building systems. Technical experts and in-the-field professionals will share practical knowledge, and the insights.

This course will discuss considerations for the holistic design and construction of durable, long-lasting structures that are sustainable, safe and resilient. A building's primary goal is to protect the lives, lifestyles and livelihoods of its occupants. Precast concrete has numerous qualities that can help buildings perform efficiently and offer occupants and communities healthy, flexible and useful spaces that can be effectively utilized over many years. Attendees will have the chance to see and hear case studies of projects that used precast concrete for durability, resilience, and sustainability, and examine important qualities and attributes to consider when specifying the material.

Learning Objectives:

1. Define the concepts of resilience and sustainability with a focus on holistic design and long-term, lifecycle performance.
2. Analyze how material choices made impact the safety and wellbeing of occupants over the life of the building and future design concepts.
3. Explore opportunities where sustainability, resilience, durability and efficiency intersect.
4. Identify how precast, prestressed concrete can contribute to designs that are sustainable, efficient, durable and resilient enough to protect the lives, livelihoods and lifestyles of occupants and communities.
5. Examine case studies of sustainable, resilient and safe projects that effectively utilized precast concrete to achieve their goals.

AEC-ST is proud to announce it’s alliance with the Digital Built Environment Institute (DBEI) to expand their AEC high-technology shows in North America and across the globe.

The new combined events will be produced and managed by RTC Events Management (RTC) and together will offer a comprehensive, cutting-edge slate of emerging technology solutions for the important design, building, infrastructure, construction and facilities management marketplaces.

This session of the Infrastructure 2022 webinar series will highlight disaster preparation projects to address worsening natural disasters. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) is the largest-ever federal investment in climate change.

The IIJA earmarked $8 billion for wildfire management, $6 billion for drought management, $8.3 billion for water storage and sanitation, and $12.5 billion for flood mitigation. Funds will be filtered through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Federal Emergency Management Agency, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and U.S. Department of the Interior to state and local governments.

Join our expert panel, as they discuss community resilience, the role infrastructure plays, challenges and opportunities, and perspectives from researchers, practitioners, federal programs, and policymakers.

Please join us on Feb 28th to get practical advice from construction data leaders at Ryan Construction, Suffolk Construction, and Commodore Builders for presentations on how to make data analytics consumable for everyone in your organization.

Each speaker will present practical advice on making data accessible for decision-making and real-time analytics throughout every phase of construction.

You will see first hand how to:

• Breaking down data silos within construction teams
• Expanding data collection across aspects of business function
• Creating controlled transparency across project stakeholders
• Building your centralized blueprint to perform more predictive analytics
• Achieving new levels of ROI with your construction data analytics

IIBEC will be returning to the Marriott Marquis Houston and George R. Brown Convention Center, in Houston, Texas for the 2023 International Convention and Trade Show.
