Examples of detail drawings gone WILD!
A well-detailed set of construction drawings may help everyone involved avoid errors in the field, construction defects, and possibly lawsuits.

 

For those reasons, our High-Performance Homes Team has been working these past six months to build a library of standard construction details.

These details are available to ALL AIBD members as a membership benefit.

But they are only available to AIBD members.

Weber State Seeks Industry Partners
We are excited to announce the kick-off of the registration process for the annual Design-Build Day at Weber State University.
 
Their Construction Management, Facilities Management, Architecture, and Interior Design students interact with industry partners to find internships and job opportunities. They also invite 1000+ concurrent enrollment high school and technical college students from Northern Utah. This is the premier career fair event in Northern Utah, as all attendees will be taking courses relating to the construction industry.
 
Event Timing: Friday April 1, 2022 8:00AM – 1:30 PM
Event Address: 2750 University Park Blvd Layton, Utah 84041
 
Watch this video to catch a glimpse of what the 2019 event looked like (Watch for AIBD president Bernie Kern at 0:2:28). The only difference is that the career fair will be happening in the parking lot in 2022, and there will be 15-minute breakout sessions for industry/education partners to present to students in the ballrooms.
 
The funding collected to participate in this event will be used to fund scholarships and to pay for the food trucks that we will have on-site for everyone to enjoy.
