UL Smart Building Summit
2023-10-04 08:00 - 2023-10-05 15:00 (America/Chicago) | UL Solutions headquarters in Northbrook, IL Chicago, 333 Pfingsten Rd, Northbrook, IL, 60062, United States
UL Solutions is hosting a 2-day Smart Building Summit on October 4th and 5th of this year. We are inviting owners and operators of large building portfolios, architects, building industry consultants, technology solution providers, OEMs, industry influencers, leaders from codes and standards agencies, and insurance company leaders in addition to some UL experts and executives. We are anticipating between 75 and 100 total participants from leading organizations and companies.
The building industry is poised to undergo some major transformation to meet the opportunities and challenges presented by climate change and ESG considerations, electrification and energy transition, technology shifts, digitization, AI, demographic changes in building occupants, aging and shrinking workforce servicing the building industry, and increasing complexity in building operations. Our intent for this event is to bring together the various stakeholder communities involved with the industry to deliberate about these topics, share insights and best practices, and build a collective to pull the future forward. This will also be a great opportunity to network with other leaders and stakeholders in the industry.
There will not be a cost to attend the summit itself, however, you will be responsible for accommodation, travel, and related expenses.
Please contact Ryan Piaskowski to register.

Deep Foundations - Overview and Design Example
2024-01-23 11:00 - 13:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Webinar, Webinar, United States
Deep foundation systems provide improved resistance to settlement and can safely support buildings founded on very poor soils. Deep foundations can also improve building performance by providing resistance to uplift loading. The design of deep foundations involves both the Geotechnical Engineer and the Structural Engineer. Thus, it is wise for the structural engineer to become more educated regarding deep foundation design. This presentation will provide an overview of deep foundations, including various systems in common use, such as driven precast concrete and structural steel piles, augercast piles, cast-in-drilled-hole piles, and micropiles. Mr. Harris will discuss the behavior of each system, as well as its best uses and limitations. The presentation will also include a worked example design for cast-in-place concrete piles resisting vertical and lateral loads.

Frame of Reference: Steel Moment Frames Explained
2024-01-25 11:00 - 13:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Webinar, Webinar, United States
This web seminar will discuss the structural design and detailing requirements for ordinary and special steel moment frames specified under the provisions of the 2018 IBC, ASCE 7-16, AISC 360-16, and AISC 341. Intermediate steel moment frames will only be addressed by explaining why they are not commonly used. The following topics will be presented:

Seismic detailing requirements for steel moment frames that are commonly overlooked
Examples illustrating the mixing of steel moment resisting frames with wood lateral-force resisting systems and compliance with seismic detailing requirements, even when wind load governs
Performance of past design leading up to current design philosophy for steel moment frames
Comparisons of design and detailing requirements for various steel moment frame systems
Background on the exceptions for increased height of ordinary steel moment frames
Challenges when using steel moment frames in wood construction
Helpful reference documents for practicing engineers
