Construction Specifications Institute

At first glance, specification writers and product managers might seem to operate differently. Specification writers are entrenched in the construction and architecture industry, while product managers are typically found in tech, software, or consumer goods. But if you dig deeper, you’ll find that these roles share key similarities, and comparing them reveals why someone skilled in one role could easily excel in the other. https://buff.ly/3NC9X4N

Glass recycling and reuse offer significant potential to reduce carbon emissions in buildings, but to fully harness this potential, design strategies must prioritize durability and ease of disassembly.

The San Francisco Department of Building Inspection announced a series of new building code guidelines clarifying adaptive reuse code provisions and exceptions for converting office-to-residential buildings. Developed in response to the Commercial to Residential Adaptive Reuse program established in July 2023, the guidelines aim to increase the viability of converting underutilized office buildings into housing by reducing regulatory barriers in specific zoning districts downtown.

American and Canadian cities saw 15 fewer total cranes in the third quarter of 2024 than in the first, but construction activity remains robust.

What a wonderful week at the Construction Specifications Institute annual conference. And as I stated during our vision speech, our shared direction is clear, concise, correct and complete; We choose to build up each other! And we choose to build up because, As we invest in people, we create a strong foundation. As we elevate our profession, we ensure its legacy. And as we execute our projects with precision and purpose, we build a future that reflects our highest aspirations. Come join us at CSI! #specifications #aeco #leadership #community #support #membership #boardofdirectors #conference
