One John Nolen Dr.
Madison, WI 53703
OVERVIEW

This thought-provoking discussion will explore the relevant factors in designing for resiliency and damage mitigation in a time of volatile weather and climate conditions, political divisiveness, and opposition to increased regulation.

Our speakers will address critical topics including how architects and engineers adapt building codes to evolving weather patterns, if current codes and standards are sufficient to protect the public, insurance coverage challenges, the real estate industry’s response and how can building professionals guide their clients toward protective design standards.
