Learning Objectives At the end of this program, participants will be able to: 1. Improve on sustainable design practices by maximizing the use of renewable and ecological building products through analyzing the presented design project. 2. Learn how to increase the speed and cost-efficiency of the construction process for successful application in their future building projects through close collaboration between architect, structural engineer, and fabricator. 3. Reduce embodied energy levels of newly constructed buildings by choosing a high degree of off-site prefabrication for building components during the planning and design process. Cornwall, England Ulrich Dangel The University of Texas at Austin 4. Evaluate the successful translation of design concepts and ordering systems found in nature by using the presented case study and analyzing its design process.
