Healthy, Efficient and Resilient: Constructing Today’s Buildings for Tomorrow.
For nearly 40 years and now in its 16th iteration, the Canadian Conference on Building Science and Technology has been bringing together building science researchers, designers, material suppliers, and practitioners to discuss this ever-evolving field. This conference has been highly successful each time it has been held, earning a global reputation as a leading showcase for advances in design, construction, renovation, repair, and operation of buildings and building enclosures. We anticipate the 2022 conference to be the best yet, and we invite you to be a part of it.
The overall theme of the conference is Healthy, Efficient and Resilient: Constructing Today’s Buildings for Tomorrow. We anticipate the event will bring together leaders in this field from across Canada and the world to discuss how we can design, maintain, and operate our buildings in ways that lead to healthier indoor environments and reduced impact on the natural environment by using new and innovative materials, construction techniques, and ways of thinking.
Keynote Speaker:
Peter Halsall, P.Eng., M.A.Sc.
Peter is a respected leader and entrepreneur in this industry, and reflecting on the direction and motivation of his company, Purpose, as well as his work with the District 2030, we thought he would be the perfect person to not only speak to the conference theme (Healthy, Efficient and Resilient: Constructing Today’s Buildings for Tomorrow), but provide a broader context on our industry’s role in the climate crisis. His talk will include discussion of where we need to go from here and how fast we need to get there to mitigate at least some of the catastrophic effects that climate change is leading to.
