Engineering and architectural firms are faced with risk-versus-reward-related decisions at virtually every turn. Sometimes the decision is squarely within the wheelhouse of the engineering and architectural professionals: Can a project be designed such that risk of damage to the structure, related structures, people, etc. be avoided? Or is the assumed risk on a particular project properly aligned with the potential to earn a profit? Those questions may be at the heart of a professional services practice, but today a successful firm must pay attention to so much more. In the most recent issue of Zweig Group's The Zweig Letter, Garver’s General Counsel Kurtis John shares four areas of concern that firms shouldn't overlook when mitigating risk.

In the second part of Archinect In-Depth: Licensure, we chart the origins of licensure in the United States. We explore how a combination of safety concerns, technological advances, and insecurity among architects over their own relevance led to the protection of the title 'architect,' legislation which remains in force in every jurisdiction of the United States today.

It's #ArchitectureDay, and we love our historic building in Gering. Did you know that older buildings may need something called to Ordinance & Law coverage to help them with costs for repairs to meet new codes? Read more about it on our Blog at https://lnkd.in/eEBR4WPC #Ordinance

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14TH | ONLINE | 10 AM - 1 PM Pacific California Historic Building Code Bootcamp Part 2 - Earth: Structural Considerations and Case Studies Part 2 focuses on the structural aspects of historic preservation and delves into the unique challenges of stabilizing and retrofitting historic buildings, particularly in seismic regions. Attendees will examine case studies that highlight successful applications of the CHBC to address structural safety while maintaining historic integrity. This is essential for architects, engineers, and conservators working with heritage structures. Explore the unique provisions of the California Historic Building Code (CHBC) designed to protect the historic integrity of older structures while ensuring safety and accessibility. It is California's most underutilized program to ensure lower project costs for the rehabilitation of historic buildings.

The Regenerative Architecture Index (RAI) was unveiled on 12 September?hosted by Architecture Today and UK Architects Declare, bringing together professionals from across the industry to reshape the future of our built environment. Responding to three categories - being a good ancestor, co-evolving with nature, and creating space for people - JTP has been named a front-runner in the co-evolving with nature category, and spotlighted as 'one to watch' in five other areas! An extremely proud milestone to have our practice recognised for our regenerative working, projects and ethos. Assessors’ comment: “JTP was setting – and meeting – ambitious targets for BNG and bioclimatic design long before they were mandatory or even fashionable. More impressive still, much of this work is in volume housing – one of the toughest areas to embed change.” Read the Compendium of Best Practice in the Architecture Today issue here: https://lnkd.in/ecFYtWcp #RAI #regenerative #design #architecture #bestpractice #nature #placemaking #team #collaboration
