11:45 - 12:30 Role of Wind Engineering in Designing Skycrapers
Speaker: Dr. K. Suresh Kumar, PEng, MASCE / Principal - RWDI (India) Managing Director
Wind engineering is a niche field extremely important for the design of skyscrapers. Wonders can be made by developers, architects and structural engineers while designing these structures by understanding the basics of this science. Typically, higher wind speed is being blamed for the damages after major wind storms. But the reality says most of these damages could be the result of poor workmanship, the absence of detailed studies, and/or not enforcing the standards/codes. In this session, basics of wind engineering will be discussed with the help of few case studies.

12:30 - 13:15 Dynamic Facades for a Dynamic World
Hardly any field in architectural practice can match the appeal of creating fully responsive environments. Commonly used to denote the performative role of computational systems and kinetics embedded in architectural form, responsive architecture has emerged as the most rapidly evolving field of disciplinary practice. Whether coming from a sustainability standpoint or stemming from pure fascination with technological innovation, the interest in responsive design has become a ubiquitous part of the contemporary architectural discourse.
13:15 - 14:15 Networking Luncheon
14:15 - 15:00 Concrete Solutions: Innovations for a Construction Essential
There is a growing pressure to create a built environment that needs the needs of today's communities without compromising the needs of future generations. Concrete is ubiquitous in the built environment being used for centuries in all forms of constructions & second only to water as the most consumed substance on earth. It is therefore essential that concrete is used in the most sustainable way. This session contributes to constructing a sustainable build environment with concrete by offering a range for sustainable concrete solutions.
15:00 - 15:45 Digitizing the Workflow Life-cycle
The construction industry in India is getting more and more complex. But the key players in a project often aren't using tools set up to serve a common goal which challenges communication and collaboration across the supply chain. Usually the engineering department uses a CAD desktop application to create an electronic workprint. The workprint gets converted into a paper construction drawing which is typically a large format paper plot that is provided to the construction subcontractor. What if the actually built differs from the design, the paper drawings may be marked up. This session shall suggest some obvious ways to streamline the infrastructure management workflow to help address these business problems.
15:45 - 16:15 Tea / Coffee Break
16:15 - 17:00 Partner Company Presentation
17:00 - 17:45 Building Green, Building Better
The buildings in which we live, work, and play protect us from nature's extremes, yet they also affect our health and environment in countless ways. As the environmental impact of buildings becomes more apparent, a new field called "green building" is gaining momentum. Green, or sustainable, building is the practice of creating and using healthier and more resource-efficient models of construction, renovation, operation, maintenance and demolition.
