This is not a product, but rather a process… and yes, you will learn about world class products. The process will free you up, allowing you to continue focusing on what you do best – designing innovative, thoughtful spaces.   Points of discussion will be: history of steel, applications & sectors, 4 types of structures, unique design considerations, the process, case study: drive through canopy, how to identify the right specialty manufacturer and the benefits of working with a specialty manufacturer to design, engineer and fabricate open air steel structures.


Learning Objectives:
The key elements in partnering with a specialty manufacturer of open air steel structures include:

• Leveraging design expertise not found in conventional design

• Understanding the difference between specialty manufacturers and conventional steel fabricators

• Reducing the architect's scope, saving the architect time and money, yet still achieving the architects design intent

• Identifying which specialty manufacturer may be right for your project.


REGISTRATION absolutely closes Thursday July 21st  @ 5pm
or when we reach 30 attendees, whichever comes first!

 * AIAT reserves the right to cancel this program if we have less than 10 registered attendees.
