2023 BES: Building the Future: Harnessing the Power of AI in the Building Enclosure Industry ($0.00 Member/$49.00 Non-member)

Course Overview
This session was originally presented at the 2023 IIBEC Building Enclosure Symposium in Orlando, Florida. This course includes the recording of the session.

Description

Many modern enclosures include delegated designs of building components by specialty engineers who are not a part of the design team and where the final system designs are not fully developed until after construction is underway. While delegated design can seemingly mitigate risk for the design team by allowing third-party specialized engineered systems, the entire project can be impacted if the delegated design is not properly defined, executed, integrated, and coordinated. This presentation will focus on the problems resulting from building enclosure-delegated designs and provide tools for owners, contractors, and design professionals to mitigate problems, avoiding unnecessary risks.
