SUMMARY:Fundamentals & Primers of Alternative Delivery for Buildings: A Designer’s Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Fundamentals & Primers of Alternative Delivery for Buildings: A Designer’s Perspective\nThursday\, March 30\, 2023\n1:00pm Webinar\n1 AIA LU\n3 Event Series Register for one or for All Three \nEach year more owners\, developers\, and builders execute projects through alternative delivery methods across market sectors. In fact\, according to research conducted by FMI\, design-build is anticipated to account for as much as 47% of construction spending by 2025. Federal\, transportation\, education\, and private organizations are all trending up when it comes to the implementation of alternative delivery\, and all its subsets are increasing in popularity and viability across project types. The opportunities for overall project cost savings\, reduced design and construction schedules\, earlier and more reliable procurement of materials and products\, and single-source contracting are all enticing benefits to owners and clients. Conversely\, when poorly executed\, alternative delivery can generate overruns and delays from which it is difficult to recover. \nJoin this session with Gannett Fleming’s integrated design team to learn about the fundamentals and primers for successful and impactful alternative delivery. We will examine the basic definitions and common misconceptions about design-build\, investigate legal considerations\, and lean into market sector-specific applications and examples. \nFollowing this webcast\, attendees will be able to: \n\nUnderstand the fundamental tenets and successful teaming principles of alternative delivery and design-build.\nReview the basic legal requirements\, considerations\, and ramifications of entering alternative delivery contracts.\nReview market-specific design-build opportunities and success stories.\nExplore design excellence in alternative delivery applications.\n\nThis course qualifies for PDH\, AIA\, and CMCI credit. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:International Masonry Institute's Virtual Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:March 30\, 2023\nFlashing and Moisture Control\nLOCATION: Virtual Event\nCost: While the seminar is free\, registration is required. The deadline for registration is the Monday before the program’s date.\n1 AIA LU/HSW per session \nAgenda\n12 -1 p.m. | Seminar\n1-1:15 p.m. | Question and Answer\, Conclude \nSpeaker: Casey Weisdock\nMoisture management is essential to protecting a building and its occupants from experiencing damage caused by excessive moisture accumulation. Building materials exposed to prolonged damp conditions can lead to mold\, bacteria growth\, steel corrosion\, and failure of adhesives. Well-designed\, properly installed masonry flashing systems are essential components of an overall moisture management strategy. Join us to learn best practices for flashing at critical locations like base of wall\, sills\, window heads\, copings\, and roof-to-wall interfaces. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of appropriate flashing materials\, weeps\, ventilation strategies\, and drip edges to help you create an optimal design and installation. \nREGISTER
