Curious about sustainable design practices that can help you contribute to a greener built environment? Watch NCARB’s "Designing for Deconstructability and Reuse" webinar to learn from experts about the sustainable building approach, circular construction, and how it can be used to protect the public’s health, safety, and welfare.
During the webinar, NCARB Vice President and Futures Collaborative Liaison Andy McIntyre; Cornell University Assistant Professor in Architecture and Circular Construction Lab Director Felix Heisel, Assoc. AIA; and Futures Collaborative Chair Dena Prastos, AIA, NCARB, examined how considering the complete lifecycle of buildings—from material sourcing through deconstruction—creates pathways to a more sustainable future, and how regulation could evolve in the future to support these shifts in practice. Panelists also answered attendee questions during a live Q&A session.
