Sustained in Steel [A3]

Let's talk about structural steel through the lens of sustainability. We'll begin with an overview of the steel supply chain that fully communicates the implications of the sourcing and end-of-use cycles for steel before exploring how steel fits into the principles of re-use and adaptability in the built environment. We'll examine why one compelling project chose steel to create a LEED Platinum building through a whole-building LCA. The Houston Advanced Research Center (HARC) is also one of the first commercial buildings to achieve a net-zero operational energy consumption in Texas.
