Description

This session will focus on an important emerging topic within the construction industry: Prevention through Design (PtD), also known as Design for Construction Safety. Learn what PtD is and how it is directly connected to topics that are important to your customers: social sustainability, corporate social responsibility, and innovation. You will learn how PtD is both the right thing to do and the smart thing to do in terms of cost, time and quality. You will see common examples of PtD and hear about tools (including a resource focused on concrete available free from NIOSH) and contracts that enable it. PtD has been required in Europe for many years and is becoming common in other nations, too. In the U.S., PtD is often practiced by owners and large design-build firms in the process industry and is slowly moving into other segments of the design and construction industry. The session will conclude with tips associated with organizational culture, processes, and project partners that will help you implement PtD within your organization and gain a reputation as an innovative, sustainable, and ethical leader.
