Seminar Brief:While structural safety of buildings in Singapore has been enhanced over the years, building failure during construction do occur from time to time. With land use being intensified, the structural system of buildings are becoming more complex, often involving multi-level of load transfer. The publication Buildings: What can go wrong is a compilation of past failures in projects within Singapore, some of which resulted in loss of life and property damage. A curated list of local cases from this book and some overseas cases will be shared during the seminar. As mistakes in design and construction are being repeated, it is imperative that we continuously learn from past events; and for these lessons to serve as a reminder to the industry as we strive for a safe Built Environment.

The webinar serves as a platform industry to gain better understanding & clarity on regulatory submission requirements for the combined BP/CD and ST/CS plans (effective 1 Jan 2023). This will help to streamline the submission process as well as reduce the efforts and touch points for both Architects and Engineers, leading to increased productivity and synergy.

The Seminar spotlights on emerging trends in jobs and skills, talent management and human capital strategies crucial for built environment firms to gear up for transformation, as well as exemplary case studies on best practices in human capital development.

As an urbanised city, our buildings play an important role in Singapore's sustainable development. The Seminar will showcase exemplary green building projects that had pushed the boundaries of environmental sustainability through thoughtful design, sustainable construction and operation.
