We met Wednesday, April 7th from 9:00 am – 12:15 pm CT and explored Smart Sustainability and how emerging technologies are influencing Building Products, Materials, and Systems. Building off Buildings Conference Day One in which we explored technologies impacting planning and building design, we discussed how these innovations are impacting the Operations and Maintenance of Buildings for a greener, sustainable future.
Intelligence and Sustainability in Materials, Products, & Systems
Sustainable materials are at the core of future construction. The ability to bring new innovations can lead to improved building efficiencies, waste reduction, and cost savings. We explored smart building products that promote building wellness.
Emerging Technologies for Smart Sustainability and Building Operations
Design professionals and city planners are pushing to find the best sustainable building materials for projects. The EPA notes that commercial and residential buildings account for over 11% of CO2 emissions; green building practices are advancing quickly – choosing the best sustainable materials is a key component to a successful project.
