Watch Now SSE

No development has impacted the operation of commercial buildings more broadly than sustainability — and none has more devils in the details. Sustainability scenarios on paper may not play out in actual practice. Analyzing the cost/benefit and the environmental impact of products and buildings over the lifecycle can sprain both spreadsheet and mind.

The Smart Sustainability Expo will provide you with tools that you can apply to building sites, energy, materials, and indoor environmental quality. The tools will help you make profitable decisions about up-front costs vs. life-cycle costs and green certification. That’s smart sustainability!

All sessions are available now for immediate viewing, so logon to BUILDINGSVIP to watch now!
