AIA NC - The New Language of Resilience
AIA has long recognized that designing for "Resilience" is an essential element of our responsibility to protect the public. From our members impacted late last year by Hurricanes Debby and Helene, we learned insurers are only covering the cost to build back exactly what was in place originally, with no consideration for the inevitability of frequent similar events due to climate change. Combine this with Homebuilders pushing NC Legislators to enact laws to reduce safety standards and eliminate critical inspections of our buildings, the need to have open and honest discourse about the true measure of Resilience is critical.
To that end, AIANC will be presenting experts on the subject of Resilience and presenting their findings along with the report from AIA on Resiliency in the Built Environment.
