Pdf Summary
The document presents a case study in institutional buildings using precast concrete. The program number of the presentation is LIVE21RPCS100 and it offers one AIA HSW LU credit. It is registered with the AIA/CES for continuing professional education. The content does not constitute approval or endorsement by the AIA or RCEP. Tony McConnell, an associate at Robert A.M. Stern Architects, is the presenter. He has 15 years of experience and specializes in academic and institutional projects.<br /><br />The objectives of the presentation are to discuss alternative building enclosure options, explain the benefits of working with precast concrete, describe the working relationship with precast producers, and review joint treatment and connection details. The presentation includes case studies of institutional buildings such as Marist College's Natural Sciences & Allied Health Building, Marist College's McCann Center Expansion, and Villanova University's John and Joan Mullen Center for the Performing Arts.<br /><br />Key lessons learned from these projects include the importance of collaboration with precasters, the use of mock-ups, being creative in finding solutions, preconstruction coordination for more efficient projects, the benefits of using hybrid envelope systems, the use of technology for construction speed and worker safety, and the importance of brick selection in the panel manufacturing process. The case studies also highlight the use of BIM management, exploring complex details, and creative problem-solving with new technology.<br /><br />The presentation concludes with a thank you message.
