SUMMARY:OES Webinar: Sustainability and Why EPD’s for Concrete will be a big deal
DESCRIPTION:Presenter:    James Bogdan\, Senior Director\, Sustainability Initiatives – Structures and Sustainability \nNational Ready Mixed Concrete Association \nPresenter Bio:          \nJames Bogdan is the Senior Director\, Sustainability Initiatives for the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association.  Based in the greater Pittsburgh area he helps NRMCA members meet evolving sustainability-related requirements in building construction standards\, sustainability initiatives including product sustainability and transparency\, responsible sourcing\, and other environmental\, social and governance (ESG) practices. James also assists with developing strategies that will support concrete’s position within standards development and manages a variety of education and certification programs for the association \nDate: Wednesday\, May 19\, 2021 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nPresentation Summary: \nAn Environmental Product Declaration\, or EPD\, is an independently verified and registered document that communicates comparable information about a prescribed range of life-cycle environmental impacts of products.  In the past\, construction materials could contribute to earning LEED credit based on a single attribute like recycled content\, rapid renewability\, or regional materials.  Today\, a more holistic approach is necessary for garnering credits for more favorable environmental impacts.  This webinar will discuss the NRMCA industry-wide EPD program and how it can be used by concrete producers to demonstrate compliance with current requirements of green building standards. \nAgenda:\n– Trends and specific drivers of transparency \n– What are EPDs \n– EPD Process \n– Drivers of EPDs \n– EPD in LEED rating system \n– Product Disclosure in construction documents \n– EPD market activity \n– Final thoughts and Q&A \nJoin Zoom Meeting  \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/87012546561?pwd=NlEyWm5wZ1NjYUVSTFZ2ZVNGWW5vZz09 \nDial: (312) 626-6799\nMeeting ID: 870 1254 6561\nPasscode: 898106\nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,87012546561#\,\,\,\,*898106# \nOur seminar is offered as a no cost\, value-added service to all WRMCA current members.  This is the sixth webinar in a series to address separate topics regarding compliance and safety guidelines\, changing regulations as well as a review of existing regulations. \n

SUMMARY:#ConcreteTough: Are You Tough Enough?
DESCRIPTION:#ConcreteTough: Are You Tough Enough?   \nDate: March 3\, 2021 \nTime: 1:30 – 2:30 pm CST     \nPresenter: Jereme Montgomery (Business Development Manager – Stephens & Smith Construction) \nCredits: 1 PDH (No AIA credits) \nRegistration Link: https://cvent.me/eXOR0P \nDescription: Concrete is the foundation for everything we build. Concrete is an integral part of homes\, businesses\, schools\, offices\, churches\, roads\, and bridges. The concrete industry is in need of people who aren’t afraid of hard work. A career in the concrete industry not only pays well but gives individuals the chance to build something that will stand the test of time. Right now\, there is a growing need for concrete contractors\, equipment operators\, ready mix concrete truck drivers and quality control personnel.  #ConcreteTough is a Nebraska based workforce recruitment campaign that exposes youth to the concrete construction industry.  This message is communicated through participating in various career fairs\, concrete 101 programs\, and presented to numerous schools on the different careers the concrete Industry offers.  Attendees will learn ways that they can incorporate concrete career awareness into their own workforce recruitment efforts. \nLearning Objectives:  \n\nAttendees will learn ways that they can incorporate concrete career awareness into their own workforce recruitment efforts.\nAttendees will understand the correlation between employee recruitment and retention and company culture.\nAttendees will be able to identify tools used to communicate with potential employees.\nAttendees will be able to better understand how to communicate to potential employees about concrete construction related careers.

SUMMARY:Avoiding Damage\, Distress and Disappointment in Concrete Structures Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Avoiding Damage\, Distress\, and Disappointment in Concrete Structures\nDate: February 18\, 2021 \nTime: 8:00 – 9:00 am CST\nPresenter: Michael Lee\, (Principal – Wiss\, Janney\, Elstner Associates\, Inc.)\nCredits: 1 PDH and/or 1 AIA CES LU/HSW (AIA Course #MCC021821)\nCost: Free\nRegistration Link: https://cvent.me/2PVbQ5 \nDescription: This presentation reviews failures\, damages\, and other incidences of poor performance in concrete structures that have served to shape today’s building codes and the standard of care for the profession. Examples range from well-documented\, high-profile collapses to lesser known but similarly influential structural and serviceability problems.  Case histories will include discussion of excessive cracking\, the cause of such distress\, and mitigation measures. The case histories will illustrate how small details can often mean the difference between success and disappointment; and how codes have evolved to reduce the risk of future failures. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nAttendees will understand how failures\, damages\, and other incidences of poor performance in concrete structures have served to shape today’s building codes and the standard of care for the profession.\nAttendees will be able to identify examples of well-documented\, high-profile collapses and lesser known but similarly influential structural and serviceability problems.\nAttendees will understand some causes of excessive cracking in concrete.\nAttendees will comprehend how to mitigate excessive cracking in concrete.
