Presented by ArcelorMittal North America
Zoom REGISTRATION
Course Description: Collaboration and communication with material suppliers opens the door for engineers and architects to harness the latest developments and innovations to make their structures stronger, lighter, and greener. This course will explore the latest developments in structural steel, discuss strategies for reducing project costs by implementing new steel products, analyze the impact of these products on the embodied carbon of a building, and provide insight into future developments in the steel industry.
Learning Objectives:
- Explore the different methods of steel production and investigate how the different processeseffect the functionality and embodied carbon of the final product
- Determine methods to reduce the carbon footprint of a steel building from procurement to building optimization and the roles engineers and architects play in these methods
- Discover the benefits of high-strength steel, how it increases efficiency, saves money, and reduces the carbon footprint of a project
- Assess the plan for the future of the steel industry and discuss new technologies on the horizon
