JOINT BOA-ACES CONFERENCE 2017 – Introductory Note
Collaborative Alliances – Building Resilience and Innovative
Practices
Integrated multi-disciplinary design approach has become the modus
operandi of many successful architectural design and engineering
practices. Today’s developments with their infrastructure are becoming
more complex and challenging. Their large scale coupled with diversity of
functions or very specialized performance criteria demand collaborative
frameworks as part of the design and implementation processes to
facilitate sterling quality outcomes. Computational tools and advanced
construction technology have become indispensable means for
architects, engineers and builders to perform in the arena of high user
expectation and competitive markets. Buildings besides meeting their
programmatic requirements, are also accountable for achieving the
stringency of resources consumed, energy used, impact on the
environment and the attainment of wellness of the users. The scope of
design has now encompassed the life-cycle of the building. As such the
consideration of construction, operation and maintenance are significant
design attention in the different phases of a building’s life. All these
emphasize the importance of a collaborative platform that ensures
seamless
information
conveyance,
effective
communication,
comprehensive synthesis and coordinated efficacies.
The inaugural BOA-ACES Conference 2017 will enable practitioners to
gain insights for gearing up to engage the potentials and turbulences of
the future. Structured into three topics under the theme of Collaborative
Alliances – Building Resilience and Innovative Practices, the first will
discuss about opportunities and challenges of building industry in the
future. The second topic will present case studies of successful
collaborative efforts between architects and engineers. In the third topic,
the focus will be on strategies for resilience, productivity and innovative
practices.
