While building physics largely are based on Newtonian principles, physics outside of the built environment have been moving toward quantum mechanics. This presentation will start to see environmental factors through […]
Dive into the transformative world of Singularity, where artificial intelligence, spatial computing, and digital twins converge to redefine how we design, interact with, and understand the built environment. This session […]
As the pioneer of BIM-based Digital Twin development, we’ve worked with the leading facility owners and builders, and the biggest challenges were related to creating BIMs for existing facilities, ensuring […]
This presentation will provide a case study on how the Metropolitan Transportation Authority – NY (henceforth MTA) approaches and implements BIM and Digital Twins, including valuable insights, lessons learned, and […]
This one-hour course will cover electronic leak detection (ELD) testing methods used for quality assurance of roofing and waterproofing membranes. Participants will learn about the principles outlined in the ASTM […]
In this session, we will cover the lessons learned from multiple case studies regarding electronic leak detection (ELD) quality control testing as part of new construction, forensic testing in existing […]
Given the increasing frequency and severity of natural hazards and the dire predictions of climate scientists, it is imperative to redouble efforts to mitigate climate change and adapt to reduce […]
In 2023 and 2024 a two-part workshop on Resilience of Naval Waterfront Facilities in a Changing Climate was held, co-sponsored by the Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAV-EXWC) and the […]
Extreme heat causes more deaths in the United States than any other natural disaster. Discussions around the role of buildings in heat mitigation and resilience often focus on air-conditioning, and […]
Mentorship has been key for the career growth of many women in the C-suite in the built environment. It’s important to find a quality mentor and be a mentor for […]
