Building Resilient Projects to Create Strong Communities

Resilient design and construction is all about finding solutions to deliver longevity, innovation, and adaptability in our projects. Successful resiliency programs can be as unique as the projects they’ll deliver; however, good resiliency programs have some essential elements. In this episode of Design-Build Delivers, DBIA’s VDC Director Brian Skripac talks to USCAD’s Troy Gates and Ryan Colker from the International Code Council about a wide range of resiliency topics to help your team deliver projects that stand the test of time.Download resources from this episode and read our show notes at: https://dbia.org/building-resilient-infrastructure-to-create-strong-communities/
