PRECONFERENCE - Existing Building Assessments: Lessons Learned and Best Practices for Structural Engineers

The NCSEA Building Assessments Subcommittee invites you to join us for a half-day pre-conference symposium on building assessment, a vital and growing area of practice for structural engineers. This summit will share highlights from the 2024 fall webinar series on building assessment, which covered a range of topics related to the evaluation of existing buildings, such as:

·       Investigation methods and tools, including non-destructive testing, surveying, monitoring, and scanning.

·       Common failures in different types of structures, including specifically steel, concrete, wood, masonry, parking garages, balconies and decks, and building envelopes.

·       Report writing and recommendations, including rating systems, levels of assessments, and legal aspects.

You will also have the opportunity to network with your peers and learn about the latest developments and resources from the NCSEA Building Assessments Subcommittee. In addition, you will participate in a dynamic discussion on next steps when a structural engineer discovers a potentially unsafe condition and whether they should advise the building to be evacuated or otherwise closed.

Thank you to our event sponsor, DEWALT, and to our Summit anchor sponsor, CSI!

Registration fee is $249 (members of NCSEA)/ $449 (nonmember) per person. Summit registration is not required to attend.
