SLIA Archpedia Construction Seminar 2018
“Integrating Architecture and Engineering for Energy Efficient Buildings”
The Archpedia seminar organized by JLanka Technologies in collaboration with the SLIA Resource Centre, Board of Architectural Publications, is re-scheduled to be held on the 15th of March 2018 from 5pm onwards at the SLIA, Auditorium. The Seminar, organized under the theme – ‘Integrating Architecture and Engineering for Energy Efficient Buildings,’ will explore the nexus between architecture and engineering as well as the integration of these two components; in the enhancement of energy efficiency in contemporary constructions.
A move towards better design and building practices would ensure energy efficiency in constructions, which is vital to reducing the greenhouse gas emissions, in the decades to come. In Sri Lanka’s construction sector, the focus on energy efficiency has been a long overdue, whereas this is already receiving considerable attention, globally.
