Thank you to Matt Baker from Kingspan Insulated Panels for a great discussion on how our industry is responding to the desire for a more sustainable future. We learned a lot about the different certifications and programs that have evolved due to this movement, and how manufacturers are making product transparency more accessible. All of this information will help us as we strive towards fulfilling the AIA's commitment to sustainability!

Last Tuesday, we were excited to have Chad Reichert from Frank L. Blum Construction Company present how he and his team use BIM (Building Information Modeling) software to enhance both the pre-construction and construction processes. Chad discussed many examples of how BIM can catch issues in coordination between disciplines before they make it to the job site, saving both time and money. Thanks for a great and informative presentation, Chad!

We are thankful that Frank L. Blum Construction Company has been a long-time sponsor of AIA Winston-Salem. Blum Construction is proud "to create high quality spaces for our clients which allow them to fulfill their unique missions. Whether that is to provide housing, education, entertainment, an enjoyable work space, or curing the sick, we believe in developing lasting relationships based on trust, creativity, and fun. This is accomplished by super-serving our clients and never wavering in our pursuit of perfection. The end products of our efforts are well-crafted, high-quality buildings for some of the most exacting owners in North Carolina and Virginia."
