Lunch 'n Learn: Implementing Resilience in the Built Environment: Theory & Applications

  • This is an Online Event (map)

This presentation will explore core components of resilience, giving AEC professionals working knowledge that can be applied to projects in a meaningful way. Drawing on existing research, reports, and standards, we’ll begin by defining both community and building resilience.

We will explore how resilience applies specifically to the built environment and review specific risks that resilience strategies seek to mitigate. Finally, we’ll identify ways that owners and design teams can begin addressing resilience to their projects, providing examples of MEPT and civil engineering applications and suggestions for how engineers can collaborate.

This course is taught by Karpinski Engineering.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

1. Define resilience as a multidimensional concept that applies to both communities and the built environment

2. List several key characteristics of building resilience

3. Describe specific risks that resilience strategies seek to mitigate

4. Identify ways that owners and design teams can begin addressing resilience on their projects
