CSI Webinar: Sustainable Stainless Steel Design - April 7, 2-3pm ET
When properly selected, long service life materials like stainless steel can be reused in new construction or restored during a renovation making 50-year, 100-year or longer service life achievable without material replacement. It can also extend the life of other materials like stone, masonry and wood, and reduce energy and potable water requirements. An overview of the cradle-to-grave impact of stainless steel relative to other architectural metals will be provided along with information on mining, production, recycled content, diversion from landfills and the rate of eventual recycling into new stainless steel. SRI data, green roofs, sun screens, gray water handling systems, and small water treatment systems will be included in this discussion. Tools that can be used to assist in appropriate stainless steel specification will be introduced. Learn more, or register now.
