Agenda Highlights
As the construction industry continues to evolve, dealers, contractors, engineers and architects are tasked with finding opportunities to work safer, smarter and more efficiently without putting their business or project at risk. To stay ahead, builders need the most innovative materials available. This presentation will focus on design trends and material technologies in steel-framed construction, the importance of balancing fire and acoustics and practical do’s and don’ts. It will also touch on a new lightweight Type X gypsum panel that not only answers the demand for more sustainable products, but also reduces jobsite stocking and hanging complexity while promoting greater worker safety and productivity.
