Explore the advantages of integrating 100% offsite fabrication into the design of the ornamental railing you specify in your architectural projects.

When compared to local fabrication, Offsite fabrication of custom-designed railing systems not only dramatically improves product quality, it also minimizes project waste, reduces product costs, and streamlines construction processes. Offsite Fabrication = Value Engineering!

In this presentation you will learn how architects, designers, and engineers can reduce overall project costs and improve project outcomes by specifiying architectural products which have been custom-designed to precisely fit each project, and then prefabricated to completion offsite, while helping builders and contractors achieve greater efficiency.

For architects, purposeful materials selection is a priority in any design. For restorations and renovations, product selection means more. Designers who re-use the building’s existing materials not only preserve historic beauty but also reduce the embodied carbon of the building. On a rare occasion, a re-used product can deliver even more. This course features that one product – the cast-iron radiator. Of course, we’ll discuss the history and beauty of the radiator. Most importantly, we’ll talk about how a century-old product can deliver a modern, energy-efficient heating system with less environmental impact than other options.

Behavioral and mental health issues are growing problems within our society, with growing facility budgets across the U.S. reflecting this fact. But designing and building a behavioral health facility requires special considerations. Recent studies show that excessive noise and lack of privacy can cause undue stress in behavioral health patients, while elements like natural daylight, suicide-resistant building materials, and good sightlines can dramatically improve health outcomes. This course will review design options and best practices for behavioral health applications, along with providing real-world examples through recent case studies from several leading healthcare facilities.
