Buildings and building systems have a complex and evolving relationship with the climatic conditions that the building is subjected to. Increasingly, owners and occupants of buildings are asking how their existing and future buildings will fare under changing climatic conditions. Project teams may find that addressing these requests are a formidable challenge. How can we know that a building that is resilient now will be resilient in the future? This seminar provides an introduction into this challenging area, with presentations that share examples of project teams that assessed climate adaptation needs and the solutions they provided to their clients.
