About the Presentation:
Close your eyes and picture it in your mind, what characteristics would it have? Is there an ideal construction material? On a typical project multiple materials are utilized. But when we start to consider what an ideal construction material would be, it provides us with a framework to evaluate the major materials in use today. Today sustainability is just as important as it has been, but resiliency has become part of the equation as well. This course will discuss the sustainable and resilient characteristics of structural steel and comparing those characteristics to those of wood and concrete.
