Abstract:
The Road to Resilience lies in adapting. Cities, towns, and communities, working with the construction industry, continue to rebuild and prevent against the challenges that face our buildings—both from natural disasters and aging structures. These presentations offer knowledge that stricter standards and design elements can go a long way to reaching our goal of being “resilient.”
